Your English is fine . . .

*-Will it be powerful enough? (it doesn't need to be super fast)* *Yes*

*-Which OS should i use? (which Linux? Ubuntu?) Debian*

So in this specific context, Ubuntu versus Debian may matter less, but
Ubuntu is not exactly a server distro. Like any other flavor of Linux, it
can be made to do anything other Linux's can do but . . . Debian should not
let you down.


Just so you know, the BBB is actually rather fast with network transfers
via the ethernet interface. That is considering it is 10/100 fast ethernet.
You can nearly max the interface speed wise.

I would pick up one of Robert Nelson's 3.13.x Debian images, and start
learning / testing.
