Does anyone have any ideas for a good hardware build for a SOHO server? Here's what I'd like running on it: OpenVPN, FreeSWITCH, and a firewall (probably pfSense). My home network doesn't have too much traffic, and I don't get that many calls. -- 'We who cut mere stones must always be envisioning cathedrals.' Quarry Worker's Creed
Raspberry Pi? Shoot for 1.6 ghz dual core with 1gb memory, 2 NICs. That should be overkill (engineering translation: bare minimum). Brian Foster Endigo Computer LLC Sent from a mobile device. On Jun 8, 2012 2:35 PM, "Timothy Bolton" <ifoundthetao@gmail.com> wrote:

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