Probably be over-kill, but I woud just set it up in server-only mode, then set up rsynch to run between the two servers.

You did not mentioned that you have a firewall. That spare PC would be good candidate for firewall only box.

i have a firewall in my router.
Still think that linux firewalls are much much better then a build in firewall in the e-tech router

Then install IPCop or similar firewall on that spare PC. If nothing else, at least good education process.
