Irving's advice is good.  If you must combine services,  
make sure the server has lots of memory, and discourage  
users of that machine from using Mathematica.  



We have a 32 Mb 25 Mhz slab that acts as Homedirectory  
server, mail server, primary netinfo server, ypserver, xntp  
server, and print server for 11 other machines.  It's  
noticably sluggish when a big print job hits, but otherwise  
is fine.

Note being a bootserver really runs the hard disk ragged.   
Not recommended.
