I'm considering using my old PII400 for a music server to get all of the music stuff off of my Pentium IV. I guess I've got two questions....

1. Will a Pentium II work well for a music server providing it is only being used for Jrec and tRio and maybe DHCP?

2. Should I use Windows 2000 or some version of Linux? I've got an old verion of win2k (also xp home) laying around and Redhat 5.2 but if I went with Linux I might just by the latest version since it's only about forty bux.

Also I would want to stuff this computer off in a closet so I would want to be able to remotely access it from another compuer.

Any ideas?
