Hi!
My Amiga 500 is up and running as a webserver!
The server is far long from complete so the server may be taken down as I need to.

Kind regards

Thats very nice.. Any chance of some pics of the inside. A500 tower seems more impressive than using an a2000.

Hi!
Pictures will follow, but my digitalcamera is non-working and I am hoping for a new one on my birthday soon. :lol: :lol:
In a few days or so there will be pictures.

That rocks!!! :afro:

did riaa/mpaa take it down?
naa, its just been /.'ed Amiga style.
-
:-( ...yeah, not work....
But I saw before, and I like it :), incredible the smallest Amiga of the Histoty ;-)
-
Sorry guys! I had to take her down some time. I'm not still finished with everything, so the server may be taken down when I need to.
-
Wow! Thats awesome!. I never new there was a tower/zorro board for the A500? :-o
-
Very cool!
I want to see Windows XP on a 7mhz cpu, a 1 meg video card, and 8 meg of ram run as a web server. :)
My estimate is it would take about 18-20 hours just to boot. Got to hope it never crashed!

Impressive!!
How do you add 8MB fast ram on a Amiga 500?
-
Very nice!! it works perfectly here... One question, how works the A500 with wb3.1? 7 mhz is enough? I want to put ks 3.1 on my A600 if i find a pcmcia memory with a decent price, but i don't have an accelerator.
-
Balrogsoft, KS3.1 will run fine on your A600 - thats what I ran on mine (still got it somewhere) & the only upgrades it had were a 1Mb chip ram upgrade giving it the full 2Mb & a 160MB hard drive :-)
Very nice A500 too! Works fine here!
-
@AmigaMance:
I¨m using the GVP 4000 HC+8 which gives me 8 mb in the zorro, and a scsi-controller that I'm using my 2 GB disk with. 8 MB is max in the Zorro2-adresspace. Hopefully I will find a accelerator for the A500/A2000 that is connected in the 68000-socket.
@balrogsoft:
It works great with 7 MHz and OS3.1. Just get a 3.1 ROM.
See also the Amiga 600 Webserver at: http://viten.mine.nu and you'll see what an A600 can do with only 2 MB ram!
-
Nice and somewhat unexpected! Now, where's the A1000 webserver? =)
Although, I wonder, is there a reason for using Miami instead of AmiTCP?
-
Well, MiamiDX gives me DHCP! :-D
It's easiest that way! I like Miami better than Genesis.
-
It's easiest that way! I like Miami better than Genesis.
If it hadn't been for Miami not performing as good as AmiTCP/Genesis and it being a bit more hungry for resources I would probably have stuck with Miami aswell. I began surfing the net on the Amiga with Miami back in the days, and I have always liked its ease of use. Just not liking it as much today, though, since I don't have the need for DHCP and the fact that Miami falls behind perfomancewise compared to AmiTCP/Genesis.
-
Impressive. I just viewed it using my A500 - so for the first time my A500 "talked" to another A500. (maybe they secretly plotted to take over the world ;-) )
A500 tower seems more impressive than using an a2000.
Somehow, a webserver A500 in its original case would seem more impressive than a tower. An A500 in a tower is like taking a turtle out of its shell and putting it in a shoe box.
-
yay! another 68000 webserver out there :) I shall add a link to it from my A600 the next time I update the contents on it (which is not that often :) )
just out of curiosity, did you get the version of aws you're using from my A600? (I'm trying to gather all the versions of aws that I can find)
-
I wouldn't mind having a stock A500 as a webserver, but finding an ethernetcard for that would be as rare as my Micronikboard. OK, I managed to get one, but the chances doesn't comes to often. :-)
And somehow I do like the micronikboard, gives me the possibility to use Zorro-cards.
@mr_a500:
Are you using a serial connection to get your A500 online?
-
@fx
Please feel free to add a link :-)
Hopefully I will be able to have this computer online everyday! Actually, fx, I got inspired by your A600! :-D
And I remember that I got this A500 with Micronikboard and thought that it would be fun to get it online.
The AWS is from your site :-D :lol:
-
Are you using a serial connection to get your A500 online?
Yes, I have an external 56K modem and I use MiamiDX. Your page looks good in IBrowse and everything works nicely. (nice looking counter!)
-
I missed the pic of the A500, any chance of a link to it?
A500s are my favourite :-)
-
My a500 is online again!
Welcome to: www.amiga500.se
:-)
-
HAHA thats TOOO GOOD!
-
This is a big deal? :-? Sorry... I think it's great and everything but I did this many many moons ago and I didn't think it was a big deal then.
Did you write the server?
I really wish I could still compile PurpleCow for 68000... The original version was that way, the new version requires 020 just because FPC doesn't compile for 000. :evil: This really bugs me because there are a few other projects I'm working on that were originally intended so they could be run on a stock A500 with OS2.04.

@AMC258
Well, it was up and running already on 2006/3/2 12:17 and has now raised again :)
No, the serverprogram I am running is AWS.
-
....I'm impressed.
I agree with a previous poster, the A500 has a special place in my imagination. It was my only computer for about 6 years (before the A3000).
