Gosh. I hadn't realized this was an /even lower/ spec machine! If the software will run from 2 DD floppies, certainly it'll run from a hard disk, easily I should think. Getting a SLIP or PPP connection over RS423 serial will be a bit harder, though. I have to ask, though, what's the point? :�) Apart from to see if it can be done? (I missed hearing a "lowest-end webserver competition among some friends a few years back. The winning machine was an actual IBM PC - not even an XT, but a PC with additional hard disk. Running DOS and an IP stack and a webserver in 640KB of RAM.) Fun, but pointless. I'm currently considering making my IBM PS/2 Model 80-A21 into a web server, and it's a 386DX/25 with 16MB RAM and 2 SCSI hard disks. Even it will be a challenge. So I guess just wanting to *is* a good enough reason...) -- Liam Proven Home: http://welcome.to/liamsweb * Blog: http://lproven.livejournal.com AOL, Yahoo UK: liamproven * ICQ: 73187508 * MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
