what to do with a headless pc

[Rule]

hey everyone ^_^

I got a 2Ghz celeron with 768DDR and it's not doing a whole lot since I have 2 laptops that I do all my work on. Right now I have it setup to be a webserver for my blog (wordpress) and I have about 240gigs left :(

so...I was thinking of maybe putting all of my videos and music on it. I know I can put samba on and stream my media. but I was hoping for a web interface or some kind of interface. because I would like to be able to stream my music from outside of my LAN.

well I hope this was understandable cause i've had a few beers haha


cheers

there are heaps avaliable,
goto freshmeat.net
and search for "media server"
you should get more than enough programs to try.

Maybe the above will do what you want? I'd throw a TV card in it and make it a MythTV box.
