But I suppose my language may have been too generic. <br>
<br>
I get less than a call an hour. Most of this is just me playing
around: initiating calls from websites, integrating that into
ticketing systems / emails, etc.. So not a high demand, very few
simultaneous calls on the inbound, though I would like for many
simultaneous calls to be possible.<br>
<br>
As far as other things go: CentOS 6, no mail server, OpenVPN,
pfSense, probably OpenSSL too. Access to this network via VPN
would be on occasion when I'm out of the office, or if other
people need to get in, which would be rare. That's about all this
would be used for. Other boxes are set up for other uses.<br>

<div>I'm not expert on this topic but I think to get a more
accurate answer you you provide more detail on the the box is
going to be use for. Dedicated or shared usage.</div>

<div>For example: I'm running Fedora 14 x64 w/8gig memory and
several terabytes disk storage</div>
<div>It's a dual proc w/ 2x Intel 5160 (dual core) 3ghz (HP
x8400 workstation system board transplanted into a server
chassis). I'm using it as home based media server with 4
clients (DVR& Music), a database, email,web file server.
I just added Freeswitch and see little impact to resources.
My cost off ebay was about $400</div>

<div>For Freeswitch it might be useful to state estimated call

Try aiming for a 64-bit OS if you could. For the OpenVPN
part, if you<br>
could shoot for a Sandy Bridge or later CPU you'd probably
find the<br>
AES-NI part of the CPU quite suitable. If you're on a budget
you can<br>
always certainly aim for an AMD E-350 or something along the
lines of<br>
that. Plenty of CPU power for SOHO boxes.<br>
