Hello,
I have been using linux for a long while now, but in all my time using it for server
etc, I have never built a box specificically for linux. All my boxes have been old
PCs etc, old systems slapped together.
I am building a server for my buiness, I want to run apache/mail/firewall/router etc.
I would to spilt it over 2 boxes but dont have a large bugdet at the moment.
I am looking for recommendations on chipsets/mobo etc that work well with debian.
Normally, I would use anything and just make it work, but if I am gonna spend money I
may as well get the best performance I can.
I was thinking of an athlon based system, but could be tempeted over to intel. I am
not looking for a very expensive system, just a single processor will do fine. For my
needs I dont think I will go down the scsi route with IDE as fast as it is nowadays.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks
Pete Bainbridge
