Suggestions for server hardware sub 800 dollars
I need to make a server box that will serve web pages ( light ), do light file storage for my home network and allow me ssh access when I am away from the apartment. I have read a great deal about this on the site and looked at the manufactures sites. I see a great deal of potential there but I have more fun building it up myself. I would be glad for any suggestions any of you have. -- cheers Ben Siemon 254 723 6937 cs.baylor.edu/~siemon ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The latest one that I saw in a Dell flyer (in Canada), was a Celeron 2.9, 512MB, 80 or 60GB, etc, etc for $349 CAD. Can beat it, in many ways! If you want to build it yourself, then maybe you can build yourself a little mini-ATX machine, one that's small and out of the way?

I know that I have seen some pretty nifty 1u rack servers for as little as $450. You don't to build it, but not a bad deal IMHO. ___ Eric F Crist I am so smart, S.M.R.T!
