I have a HP Dl380 & DL360 along with a couple of 2GHz Pentium 4 Dell.  Is there an effective way to setup a mining farm with these machines?

Thanks!

Simple answer: no. You'll spend way way way more in electricity than you'll ever generate with CPU's since graphics cards can do mining calculations much more efficiently.
