Is it possible to use an AmigaOne computer or several AmigaOne clusters as web server?


Yes this is easily done using Linux. Just compile Apache and away you go. Use a Cisco CSS1100 for load balancing and/or session persistance.

On OS4 you will have to check out the Amiga Apache folk who I believe anounced that they would be supporting OS4 - check out their site. Again just use a CSS1100 for your LB/SP requirements.

In these dot.com bust days you can pick up CSS1100's on ebay quite cheap.

No, "they" say the most secure OS is one which is kept up to date with all the patches and properly configured.


Well there is an openBSD host sitting on the internet for quite some time waiting to be hacked and with prize money attached to it.
There are also current patched hosts of many OS flavours that are being hacked every day!

It's no good having a fully patched host if you give it a root password of 'password'.
