Use exim for your smtp MTA, use cucipop for your pop3 access. Use apache 1.3.3 for your web server. Use ProFTP for your FTP access. Set up DNS/BIND. Buy an old Cisco for your edge router. (~$400). Buy a BAT electronics CSU/DSU for $370. They are very ugly, but they work good. Buy a horde of used analog modems for cheap and you're ready to roll.
