Re: [PLUG] looking for secure space for a mail server
I would also encourage you to look for virtual machine - it is easier, the choice is excellent and it is portable - you can move if you need to far easier. About your original question - the price you were quoted looks OK to me. 15U is huge - it would fit pretty sizable setup such as 14x 1U 2xCPU, 1TB RAM + 4Hdd DL360 servers + 1U network switch. You could do quite a bit of work/revenue with that. I would imagine that small and cheap Colo setup would fit to 1U, not 15U.

I don't know about /exports specifically, but I do know that NFS terms its file shares as "exports." -wes ___ PLUG mailing list PLUG@pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
