Hi,
I'm planning a network connection at home for my 3 PCs. I would like to
head your advice whether or not my plan is feasable, and will it work well.
I plan to have a P133 with 48Mb ran 40Gb HD (5400RPM) be a server/ router/
firewall for an ADSL connection. It would be connected with one NIC to a
switch.
To the switch I'll connect the ADSL modem (Orckit) and the two
workstations (Lin/Win dual boot).
The P133 should also serve as a printer server for an HP710 printer and a
SMABA/NFS server for file sharing. It may also run a very small web server
and several minimal shell accounts.
My questions are:
1) Is the P133 with 48Mb of RAM strong enough for this plan?
2) Can the HP710 printer be shared for linux/windows use easily?
3) Is the switch with one NIC configration for the router OK?
Thanks in advance,
Alon
