I would do a debian 6 bare metal install no extras just os minimal install.
If its older Hardware less than 2g processor then back it down to
debian 4 or use crunchbang, Knopix or something lite weight to make the
Hardware sing and not try to keep up with bloated code.
Then load power dns to get your dns up and running quick.

This is an old DNS server managed through webmin, its a backup so its
not a big deal if it gets messed up pushing it through an update
i know its better to just build a new server and all that, I dont care
right now, we are replacing these soon anyway
Any body know what I need to do to upgrade it?
