What does your server "serve"?

Music? Gaming? pr0n?

Do tell! I'm thinking about building one for the heck of it (music and other media), and am curious as to what other uses you guys/gals are getting out of yours!
 
Mines running Ubuntu with Apache and I am serving streaming music using Jinzora to my work. Also, it's set up as a Samba server to share files and cd images with my windows machines. This way when I have lan parties and someone forgets a cd we don't have to kill them 😛

Hmmm. Legend of the Red Dragon.... Hmmmm..

I might go hunting on ebay to see if I could find a copy of Wildcat BBS.
 
HTTP, FTP, NAS, Ventrilo, BT

It holds mostly media and other downloads. My next step is to organize the contents.
 
Right now I have an old PIII running Xubuntu and I use it primarily to hold my TV episodes and backup disk images. It's also running Torrentflux on a web server.

Personally, I still enjoy takingBarneysplat! for a spin every now and then.
I've been using Synchronet. It's free and does the job well enough.

Games currently on it are: Dog World II, Falcon's Eye, Lemonade, LORD, Lunatix, Planets TEOS, and Usurper.
 
XAMPP running on XP Pro

Music + streaming
Videos
Games + game server
Webcam server
Website

Just looking at it though, you'd only think it's just a normal nuke based website, funny thing is, that's probably the least used part of it, I know it's at least a year out of date.
