Ok long story short I'm trying to take one of my old desktop PC's, socket
939 AMD, and turn it into a small home server for a few friends and family.
The functions I'm looking for are;

The ability to RDP into it from any OS, specifically XP.
VPN in and pull down a network drive that has mutliple user folders, that
only specific users can access, and a shared folder for all users to access
from anywhere in the US to any OS, specifically XP.
The ability to work from a regular desktop until such time that proper
server hardware can be purchased.

Is this possible using the Ubuntoo Server Edition and what packages would I
need to do this? If not can you suggest another distro that can? I am used
to using Server 2003 for work, however I don't want to spend that much money
for an OS at home. I do have some lite experince using Ubuntoo desktop so I
figured that would be the best choice for me. Any suggestions or help would
be greatly appreciated.
