100Base-T for the server is a requirement, the client ports could be
10Base-T with a switch.  Don't get me wrong, using 100Base-T for the
clients is way better and most 100Base-T cards support PCI are newer so it
is easier to find drives for them than 10Base-T.  One of the good things
about the dot.com and telco bust is that you can find good switches on
eBay.  I think I picked up two 3Com 48-port SuperStack 2 Switches for
about $300 each.

P.S. TuxMath really screams on it.
P.P.S. I really, really, like TuxMath. ;)
