Spare server for experiments

[Davy]

What would you do if you had a spare server for a month or two?
Okay, I know. Many of you have several servers. I only have one and will have access to another server for some time.
Give me some suggestions of what I could do with the spare capacity.

Thanks for the hint. I could actually experiment with that.
Maybe try to set up a private tracker.

Yeah, but in one or two months, I would loose all of them.

That sounds as if it would cost me a lot of bandwidth. I still have to pay for overages.
