Upgraded to 17.10 (with intermediate steps).
Kind of works now, except the DHCP that runs at boot doesn't seem to get the DNS name resolution right. Using
sudo dhclient -v
seems to make it work though. I also learned not to put eth1 in /etc/network/interfaces when using network-manager to handle it. I might remove network-manager altogether :)
I did install backuppc and powernap (willing to try this combo for possible power savings). The install also added apache2 and I changed backuppc's htpasswd after installation. The postfix email config is probably very wrong.

For the networking, I uninstalled NetworkManager & Friends. Then described eth1 again in /etc/network/interfaces with static IP and DNS parameters. I used a fixed IP reserved to that host in the router's DHCP.
For backuppc, I had to make the tar program for localhost's backup run as root using the sudo hack described in the FAQ : http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/localhost.html
For powernap, it's finally running now but I don't know that it works yet. I had to disable the console monitor because of a wrong parsing of some /proc structure, and also make a change deep in the /lib code where "networking" should be used instead of "network". For the rest, log and error files are still empty so far.
