Hi,

I'm able to run a buildbot master instance on my laptop when I'm in the office and talk to the Nokia 800s, but when I'm on Mozilla-MV from home, it's one-way communication.  I can ssh into the wired Nokia but it can't talk to my buildbot port.  Also, since the mochitests take ~20 hours to complete on the Nokias, that makes leaving the office complicated.

I would like to have a linux box here that I can run a buildbot master instance on for the Nokias.  I imagine I'll find other uses for it too... test installs of tinderbox or other webtools for dev purposes.

Do you have cheap/old hardware that could run linux?  Display shouldn't matter once I get sshd set up.  Doesn't have to be terribly fast.  Keeping it up and wired in the office is the main thing.

Thank you!
By Linux box, would a Mac Mini running CentOS/Ubuntu work for this?
That would be perfect.
Deployed.
