Re: OT: LAMP appliance for non-profit use
I think you look for something like: http://directadmin.com/ Peter Saqib Ali wrote: Hello All, I know this is little bit off-topic but I think users of this group can give good advice on this topic. We have a in-house built application using MySQL + PHP + Apache. It is essentially a elaborate collection of online forms that will be used for managing school scholarship in the 3rd world countries. The student/teachers will either come to the office or fill out the forms online. We have identified few pilot location and would like to deploy this application. However due to lack of IT support at the location we have decided to use a pre-configured appliance which support the LAMP stack. All we want to do is directly ship the appliance to the location, and remotely install our app. We want the appliance to require minimal maintenance and administration, and have a auto-update feature to get security patches etc. I had previously worked on a similar project and used Sun Cobalt 550 servers. But now I think Sun has stopped making them and you can only buy them refurbished and the auto-update features are severely limited. Any other suggestion??? We want the appliance to cost us $1,000 / unit.

Re: OT: LAMP appliance for non-profit use
Have you looked at ubuntu distribution of linux. I think they have a 'school' variant which might be close to what you need. Also, the people there might be able to give you more help. Good luck.
