but actually for your purpose, I would just buy the cheapest VPS at http://www.buildyourvps.com/

I've got one for about $35 a year. The machine (or probably the network) is heavily oversubscribed, but you get a virtual machine on a dedicated IP address.

Silvan, I would highly recommend pcengines.ch instead. They are quickly available (usually shipped the next day after ordering) from a Swiss store, and so far they are the cheapest linux boxes that I could find. I'm using them exactly for the same purpose - as ssh jumphosts :)

http://linux.voyage.hk/  is a flavor of Debian specifically tailored for these boxes. It mounts the root in read-only mode by default, so your CF storage is written only when needed.

here I put a few related notes in my blog: http://txlab.wordpress.com/tag/voyage-linux/

Hi Swinogers, 


I'm currently thinking about deploying a Sheevaplug or similar with mosh (http://mosh.mit.edu) as a login jumphost since I am several hours in mobile mode every day and I need a space outside of my network to host a *jump host*


please contact me offlist and offer me housing for something like that: http://www.plugcomputer.eu/

All I am taking up is some bandwith (expected bandwith in average probably 1mbit max, half of it for keepalives for outbound vpn tunnels, 
Power consumption apparently less than 10watts.

Need v6 and v4 connection, 1 IP each, public, not firewalled, 1 Plug in the power strip



Since this is a rather non-standard thing I'm looking for, but I need it in a datacenter outside my infrastructure, I thought it's best to ask here.

Btw, for anyone experienced already or looking into mosh, looking forward for exchange here



Good Evening!

Silvan
