From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I saw you comment that your thinking of hosting a minecraft server on it. Just FYI your going to need access to the router for port forwarding to let the minecraft server be accessible to anyone not on your LAN. Which i saw you may not have in another comment. As for actually controlling them just ssh into the server from the other one.
If you really want to do a server that other people can join and cant use port forwarding you may be able to get it to work with a VPN like hamachi and get your friends all on that. But ive never done that with an actual server just used it for LAN games so im not sure it would work. Id think it should but cant say.
