That'll be sweet running what you want.
My Backend is a Duron 900 Processor,  512mb Ram, several HDD, a PVR150, 
PVR300, Sat card (Which I will have to get off my but and get working), 
Samba, Apache, Gallery2, Squid, Bind, Sendmail, Procmail, Spamassasin, 
(Got to look into ClamAV as well) & I plan on getting LTSP running for 
that Diskless Frontend ;) Only time I notice major processor usage, is 
comflag, and Spamassassin doing there thing. I suppose I could do with a 
  touch more ram though, might help Squid & Apache responses.
Your 2.4Ghz will run sweet.
