one of the reasons I went with my linux setup was to avoid the login issues. I run 24/7 365 as well (I have an application in for this site/scan america). Since the initial build out a couple of years ago, it's been a set it and forget it configuration.. it's been down twice in the past year, one was a power outage that lasted almost a day - the other was when I moved.
Network traffic has been minimal and the old Pentium II / 400 still has plenty of power to run a few other goodies off the box..
