Use only high quality hardware
I have positive experience with:
- Asus mainboards
- Infineon RAM
- AMD Athlon CPU
- Verax CPU Cooler (PCSilent)
- Intel NIC
- Adaptec SCSI controller
- HP DDS Streamer
- Matrox graphic card (driver 2.54)
- APC UPS (PowerChute Software)
Take care of a good cooling.
Installation
- Install Warp Server (Advanced)
- Install HPFS386
- Install Fixpack 43
- Install Netscape 4.04 (not 2.02 and not 4.61)
- Install the Feature Installer
- Install Java 1.1.8
- Install the latest Java update
- Install TCP/IP 4.1 (slow link, use shift click to download)
- Install MTPS fix 8610
- Install MTPS fix 8620
- Install TCP/IP fix 2001
- Install Warp Server Fix 8532
Post Installation - Optimize your config.sys
- remove everything you don't need (like MMOS2, APM, WinOS/2 and DOS)
- set protectonly=yes
- set use_hosts_first=1
- adapt the set TZ according to you timezone (use TIME868 to get you TZ string)
Useful stable software
- File Commander text mode file manager. The best!
- FTE textmode editor.
- ADUNET/2 satisfies the admins daily needs
- RSched to schedule cron jobs
- GTAK and GTAR for backup with the streamer
Useful server software
- Use built in (D)DNS and DHCP
- Squid proxy server
- Apache web server and PHP scripting language
- MySQL/2 database server
- Weasel email server by Peter Moylan
- FtpServer by Peter Moylan
- TIME868 time client and server
Useful client software
- Win NT, 2000, XP Logon Client (use shift click to download)
Things I wouldn't do
- Don't touch it if you don't have to.
- Don't test any new software.
- Use only software which has proven to be stable.
- Don't use Netscape or any other browser on you server.
- Don't use your primary Warp Server as a print server. It's not stable enough.
