[TriLUG] Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Anyone Upgraded Yet

Nothing too complicated to be honest.  Here goes.

1) Duplicity backups for my NAS drive (Pushes to Amazon S3)
2) Front-end SSH for remote connections into my home network
3) Small web server that I run some PHP on.
4) MySQL for a bit of data that I use in the PHP pages.
5) Subversion repos

The Raspberry Pi has several NAS shares mounted and for the most part just
reads/writes the data for these services from my actual NAS drive over NFS.
 This way I didn't have to buy a big SD card for the Pi to handle what I
wanted.

The backups and subversion were the most important services.  I have
thought about adding DNS, but just haven't had the time to configure it
yet.   Maybe an openvpn server at some point is in the roadmap.

Oh and I have the 256Mb RAM version (very first B model that I had shipped
from the UK).
