Hello,
I've two ultra5's and an ultra10. The sparc 5 I have I'm getting ready
to trash. Since it had the 170 Mhz upgrade its just too much of a pain
to get linux installed and I don't want to run Solaris at home.
One ultra5 is my DNS server, Kerberos server, DHCP server, smtp and
imap server and webmail server.
The other is the primary web server (not really doing much) and an ldap
server. Also is my remote access machine, as it were.
The ultra10 is primarily a file server, NFS now, but when I had windows
I ran samba on all the machines. One was the domain controller. Now,
no windows and currently no samba.
All of these are at home. The university I work at sells the old equipment
to the general public at surplus and one can get a deal sometimes.
Regards,
Earl Shannon
