I have experience with various Linux distributions, however there are a lot of plug ins that are Windows/Mac only that I will be running. It would AWESOME to run a bunch of powerful Linux boxes for DSP resources on a network with Reaper and my plug ins running in Windows!

I'm not really sure, but I have successfully used Windows 32-bit Reaper on 32-bit WINE on 32-bit Ubuntu Studio Linux on a desktop computer as well as a laptop computer.
Probably it would work. The Windows versions of Reaper tend to work OK over Wine, especially if Wine has been updated from
http://winehq.org (wine-devel is a good version to install; it and winecfg both install into the /opt/ directory).
As far as I know, internetworking functions of Windows programs still work via Wine on Linux. For example, I was able to run an internet radio program for 32-bit Windows on 32-bit Wine on 32-bit Ubuntu Studio Linux.
You would want to ask at the forums at
http://winehq.org aboutu other forms of network support structures, processes, procedures, protocols, and compatibility.
However, as far as Reaper goes, it would probably work is my guess.
