Vanila A1200 as Net server ;-)
« on: March 14, 2005, 03:05:45 PM »
Hi to all .
I want to make an A1200 with ramcard and Hd to act as an FTP, http and even mail server. It is just for the sake to prove to some people here that you don't need Ghz and GB(ram) to do it just a nice machine and an eficient OS.
My problem is that I searced for a ram card that with FULL populated ram (8mb) wont disable the pcmcia that I need for the ethernet, but I didn't find any . So I need the OS and the deamons-programs to get the smallest footprint in memory so I can succed the project with only 4meg fast.
I loaded 3.9 and is ok with future like deficons and BIG HD support, but its memory usage is too big for the project. Is 3.1 with NSD patch recognise HDs like 30GB with partitions more than 20GB ? does genesis (from 3.9) run in 3.1 without additions ? And by using 3.1 with all the stuf will I have smaller memory footprint than 3.9 or is it  better to go with 3.9 and get some not neccesarry stuff out of it ?

The latest version of MiamiDX is best and works with 3.1! It supports DHCP if you have a router. But a non-registered version of MiamiDX is unfortanely time-limited I think.

I don't want to use Miami because its a MUI based program and will suck more memory when load also genesis is more cpu effcient when using a cnet.device and has faster I/O than Miami. I don't need DHCP because this amiga will have a real static IP.
Anyway thank you very much for your suggestion!

What software are you planning to use to host WEB/FTP and even MAIL?
The way I understand you story is you want to host a website on it (IIS for Windows Server/Apache on Linux), host an FTP Site (IIS also) and a MAIL server (Exchange being the largest)...

I am running all above mentioned (on 2 Windows servers) but would be a nice project to run FTP or HTTP on my miggy!

(although I have completely given up on the idea of EVER getting my amiga a member of my domain....)

Actually you dont have to use MUI with Miami. It offers other GUI instead aswell =)
