Hi,
I've been given a rather nice rackmount server (a Sun T2000) which is
just a bit too noisy for the spare room. Does anyone know of a friendly
local datacentre or rackspace provider that would allow me to host it

There's one in North Wales (not exactly local) who'll host it for
£20/month.
yep.. not exactly a 10 minute drive if I need to stick a dvd in the slot.
After that the price goes up and up - we recently
had a quote for over £350 per month for a 1U colo slot(!).
Wow... at those prices it's

Tuning maxusers on Solaris is a bad idea, not sure about Linux. It's an ancient
tunable whose meaning has long since ceased to control the max number of

Tuning the maxusers as a means of increasing the available inodes was
taught by Sun in their 2.x Network Admin course and was included in the
