Ok so I was pretty fed up with my current pc/server situation, and decided to give the good old dustbin err backup pc a second life. As I said, it's a Pentium II running at 233 Mhz with 256 MB of RAM so I couldn't go really wild here but Win2K runs just fine on it. How hard can it be to open up a socket and send over some ones and zeroes, right? Okay so this is probably the most unrespectful way to describe a server, maybe next to 'that ugly suitcase eating my electricity bill'

As for the hardware: no real problems there. As long as I don't get too many hits it'll run just fine. So stop reading - you're killing me I still had a 4 port hub lying around which runs at 100 Mbps so that's cool. The modem is an Eicon Diva USB ADSL modem, which works just fine - but not if you need a little more than plain dialup (I'll get to that later). So basically that's all the hardware there is to it: no screen, mouse or keyboard (Remote Desktop for president!) - just an ugly suitcase with a powercord and a hub and modem jacked in. Simple, thus great!
