Search Again: Performa 475? From: Seth Long Date: Tuesday, November 21, 2000 Time: 5:03:15 pm I'm soliciting comments about using Quick DNS Pro to serve 21 domains from a Performa 475. The 6100 I was intending to use is suffering from a life-threatening power supply problem and is no longer a good choice for a DNS server. That leaves with the option of either buying a refurbed 6100 (not a bad solution, but it's not free, either) or using the old 475 I salvaged from a newspaper we're closing next week. I tweaked the 475 today with a stripped-down OS 8.1, ANA 3.6, and QDNS Pro. It has 20MB of RAM and seems to be running fine. The question is: can it handle the load and remain speedy in the process? Or should I just give up and switch to another box? TIA. -- Seth Long Director of Information Technology Sound Publishing, Inc.
