Hi, I think that it is insecure to run sage on a server which is used for other tasks (webserver, mail server, ....). At least run sage not under your or root account, otherwise you give to the sage users all your privileges.
Better idea is to have one computer for Sage and nothing more. As Jason wrote, you can use virtual machine to achieve this, like vmware which is used on sagenb.org. We used xen and Debian without any problem. I had some problems with accessing my sage server from outside due to strict firewall and some other network related things at our university (for example, we had problems to forward port 8000 for https), this is not problem of Sage but you should be aware of this.
