[swinog] Offtopic: Servers that companies throw out? :)
Hi guys, I am shooting an offtopic, wild question.. though I kind of guess what the answers might be. Where are the big companies recycling / throwing away their servers? I am looking to build a mini lab for playing with various stuff ranging from Cisco Virl to VMware NSX and I also have to my luck a place to rack equipment free of charge with me only paying for electricity. The only missing piece is a server with enough RAM and I was looking into cheaper alternatives (already looked in ricardo and ebay but was wondering where companies throw their older tech). Can someone please enlighten me? Cheers, Mihai ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

Currently we host over 4000 IMAP mail accounts on Debian Linux mail servers (Postfix/Amavis/Spamassassin/ClamAV/Cyrus). As anti-virus solution we are using ClamAV over Amavis (amavisd-new) at the SMTP level. We are looking for a more professional anti-virus solution and would like to add another anti-virus engine At an ISP I used to work at (BIT in the Netherlands) we had four scanners on every e-mail: clam, f-prot, sophos and mcafee. All of these ran under Linux and from amavisd. After I left I think perhaps that BIT dropped one or more of those, but in my experience there really were (long tail) virusses that were caught by each engine separately and uniquely so there was benefit to having more than one scanner. I don't know much about licensing costs, but would offer that this is largely a game of 'being the persuasive customer' when it comes to bulk licensing. groet, Pim I'm gonna add my 2 cents here also... Why not try Bitdefender ? Here (in Romania) companies which are mostly medium size are using it without major problems. In the past some years ago there were implementation issues or processes hanging but I think it's quite stable at present. Please don't start a flame on this :) Also I don't know the pricing model and if it fits your budget.
