“One of my favorite things about linux is that it allows me to
have a full-featured server at home for a very small price. I have
a 3 computer network at home, and my router is a simple Intel
Pentium 133 w/ 32 MB RAM and 1.7 Gb HD.”

“That machine which run on Red Hat 6.0 is my router, dns server,
firewall/proxy server, samba server, and my web server, and it runs
great. I must tell you that the only reason that I shut that server
off is when there are thunderstorm warning in my city, but other
than that the machine runs flawless.”

And the reason for this article is to allow you to run your
own web applications of your computer, even if your machine is a
small Pentium 133 like mine. I normally, write articles that are
aimed for the newbies simply because I think they need much more
support than the “older” guys do, and this article is no
different.
