by Hello,
I wll be setting up a small server for mail, news and ftp services for
about 375 users. This will probably be running Red Hat 5.1, Sendmail,
INN and FTP. Later on, possibly Apache as well.
I was just curious as to the hardware I've picked out and whether
anyone has any comments regarding compatibility, etc.
So, here's my hardware list:
IBM ultrastar 9ES 4.5GB UW drive
(or maybe ultrastar 9LP)
Mylex Flashpoint DW BT9
Corsair 128MB ECC parity PC100 SDRAM
Intel P2-233
VGA card
I heard Mylex is the best controller for Linux. Does anyone have any
comments? Will I need to install any drivers, or is there already a
kernel that supports this controller?
What about tape drives? Any suggestions?
