Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'm about to setup a Web Host and as a result of much digging thru
truckloads of FAQS, web pages, newsgroups, mags etc, I've picked
Apache as the Web Server and either freeBSD or openBSD as the OS
(to start with anyway).
The planned (but not yet purchased) hardware is
PentiumPro 180MHZ,
motherboard is P/I-P6NP5, 2xPCI Bus Master IDE ports,
Award PentiumPro PCI BIOS with DMI, blah, blah, blah,
48Mb EDO RAM,
2x2.1Gb Seagate IDE (ST32140A),
S3 Virge 1Mb
Intel EtherExpressPro 10/100
CD-ROM Panasonic CR583B or Mitsumi CRMCFX810S
Has anyone played with such a configuration ?
Any advice/experiences much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Taras M. Dowhaluk
