Ok, i decided to use my current system as the server, and I'm getting a centrino notebook as my workstation.
I'm going to use win2003 with coldfusion mx server, and other techs.
However this is going to be a personal server but other use to it.
1)Can i run the server as a hosting server, but also as a domain server with print/file sharing/and DHCP to give IP to the whole house?
2)I think so, but how much performance hit am I geting?
3)System:
Asus 7n8x nforce 2 2.0
athlo 2100 at 2600stable (166mhz bus)- it hits about 3100-3200 easy, but the vcore is high, and i don't want to buy a new heatsink.
1 gig of 2x5120 crucial pc2700 ram at 166mhz
G4 4200 with 2 monitors
2 ethernet ports built in the MB
1 100gig 8MB wd 7200 drive
dvd drive
cd -r drive for backup
zip drive
floppy
built in audio
4)what kind of partition should i make?
5)i currently use this for dhcping the house:
cable modem ---> router --->1 port the computer, the other port to a phoneline bridge, which makes the whole house networkable.
Can i use both nics in the MB to have 1 nic as the cable modem input, and the other outputting the IP to a switch, and one port of the switch to the phoneline system?
I currently have dynamic IP, but i'm going to upgrade for static IP so i can run with less problems the server.
Is domain system worth it? or just keep the workgroup?
More questions to come
