You don't need a powerful workstation for this. Believe it or not, a Pentium 133 will work just fine for what you are talking about. My router gateway (including dial-on-demand) is a P250... run level 3 sunning Suse 9.2 --- works great. You do not need expensive hardware for this, and you don't need it to be particularly *fast*.
