<h2>About This Server</h2>
<h3>Hardware</h3>
<p>
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.
</p>
<h3>Software</h3>
<p>
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).
</p>
<p>
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 <a href="projects/vhc/">VHC</a>.
