However I am using old desktop hardware (Compaq Persario, and HP something or another). Maybe it is memory, or CPU, or some kind of incompatibility with something. I was just making a list of the hardware that should be purchased to run a low-end SME server using CentOS. Rack mountable case, with Power Supply and fans included. MotherBoard, mid-range processor. 2 Gb RAM USB Drive 1 Tb Two 500Gb or four 300 Gb internal hardrives (HW Raid would be nice) CD/DVD R/W drive and so on.......... But I don't want to get into the situation above, where I purchase NEW hardware, and CentOS doesn't like it, and furthermore the resolution is elusive. What is the best HW environment for CentOS? Brand, MFG, chipset rev, and so on.... -- Michael Anderson, J3k Solutions Sr.Systems Programmer/Analyst 832.515.3868
