Hi,

>From HW view is more than enough this type :

http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/x/hardware/rack/x3250/index.html

but I don't know how much is HW from this server supported in OpenBSD.In
specifications are only Win systems,so best way is to ask IBM about support
under their Unixes on this device (it tells something about possibility to run
it on OpenBSD).Then you can compare it against HW list from OpenBSD.

It's for way - I NEED JUST IBM (due to company policy or something like this)

Better (and lightest) way is purchase some from KD85.

Ofcourse,for pf is some old 1U with PIII >, 256 RAM > enough too.You can get
one or two year warranty even on these "old" types.

Subject: 1U IBM or Dell server for firewall

Hi!

I'm in need of a 1U IBM (or Dell as a last resort) server for a firewall
in our office. To be honest, I'm not quite familiar with IBM servers of
these kind, but I'm sure that someone is using one already for a fw, so
I just need a model number or configuration which is working perfectly
with OpenBSD 4.3. It doesn't have to be a fancy configuration, it will
be just a simple firewall... If someone would be kind enough to
recommend me an already working and tested IBM server, I'd be very
happy and thankful :)

Thanks in advance:

Daniel
