pushing the backups to the backup server, and pulling the backups to
the backup server. If I push, I have to allow read/write access of my

1. Server at friends house on fixed IP ADSL2 annex M for DNS,
SMTP+IMAP mail, web+wiki, and a second sshd on port 443, so i can get
to it from work :).
2. Home laptop, which runs vmware for Window
I use it for my laptop, desktop/HTPC. firewall/router, distfiles
server and NFS boot server. The distfiles and NFS boot servers are
actually VMs due to having to downsize PC space on my desk. (my wife
had a fit about 6 PCs on my desk running constantly.)
James Wall
To answer your survey:
All my gentoo VMs are in production as servers. Non-glorious but
essential ones such as mail servers, DNS servers, proxy servers, and
also a couple of firewalls.
I'm currently in the process of phasing out Ubuntu servers from my
company, leaving just one for running Axigen.
That is indeed cool. And a welcome news for me who's trying to
champion Gentoo in my company which, as it happens, is a
stockbrokerage house. One of my country's largest, even :)
