I'm not sure what exactly you need - it's obviously different if you're hosting a couple sites versus just having a machine to play with. The cheapest server they've got is $65/mo, though you might be able to talk em down a couple more bucks. You could also try getting a VPS from a place like servint, and have them install FreeBSD for you. Check out www.webhostingtalk.com You can ask some questions there and get great responses as to your various options.
