About This Server

+

Hardware

+

+ This server is an AMD Athlon II X2 250 Regor dual-core 3.0-GHz CPU sitting + next to one 2-GiB DDR3 SDRAM module, all on an Asus Micro-ATX motherboard + and sitting inside a very old and bare Gateway chassis. Connected to the + board is a 500-GB 7200-RPM hard disk drive. Powering the whole machine is a + 400-W ATX power supply. One front-mounted 80-mm fan keeps the case and + components cool. +

+

Software

+

+ This server runs Debian GNU/Linux. There is no non-free software (not even + firmware) installed on this system. I even have plans to someday port + coreboot (freely-licensed and high-quality boot firmware) to my server's + motherboard (and I purchased a board for which a port should be easy). +

+

+ With the help of apticron, I keep the system up-to-date with proposed + updates and security fixes. These documents are served by the Apache Web + server with mod_include for SSI parsing. My mail server of choice is Exim 4, + however port 25 is currently firewalled. I manage virtual hosts in Apache + httpd and Exim using VHC. +
