similar to: low end file server with h/w RAID - recommendations

DO NOT buy the newer HPE DL20 gen9 or ML10 gen9 servers then (especially if using CentOS 6.x) I don't use hardware raid (mdadm for the win!) so cannot speak to that. DL20, bought it on a stock 'B' sale. Great price. Works well on Windows. HPE doesn't sell hard drive trays, etc. You pretty much have to buy their equipment. You CAN get 3rd party parts (drive trays, etc.) but will

Yep, Dell's are good. And I do *not* want to buy from HP, because their support is nothing like good. And once you run out the warranty, they don't want to even let you

I just put a call into AT&T Office 365 asking them to explain the spoof warning thing... To answer your question.... At the moment, no I can't. I like HPE stuff, we bought a DL380 gen9 say five months ago and totally happy with it. In fairness, its running Server 2012 r2 too but I didn't run into the hardware gotchas I did on the other stuff. It just seems HPE skimped on their lower

Good to know about the HPE and Dell "gotchas", thanks to those who posted. I can speak to SuperMicro (11 systems, mostly X9 and X10). Hardware seems to be fine, management utilities (IPMI - like iLO) are more basic. The real heartburn right now is that the browsers for Linux have pretty much dropped NPAPI which means remote console doesn't work since it needs Java. They have

I've got a very small footprint rack server with a 4TB drive in that I wish to be a Bacula storeage device. However, it's got an old board / processor in it. Can anyone recommend a Dist that would work on it?

We are receiving LOTS of emails that contain empty XLS or DOC documents with embedded virus macros. These are getting past SPAMASSASSIN, Clamav and Kaspersky. I'm trying to write a filter for EXIM to block these emails but I need to know a good, quick, command-line to detect an empty doc with a macro. Is there anything available that I can use?? I have managed to write a PERL script to

The least demanding distributions I know are Bodhi, https://www.bodhilinux.com/ ,

I've also tried adding the pgsql and mysql RPM's and they're not available either. On 20/03/2023 12:58, Gary Stainburn wrote: > Apologies.?

Hi folks, I've found a number of articles on setting up a Linux / CUPS / Avahi server to allow airprinting, but they all seem to be quite old. Two questions: 1) Does anyone have a link for a more recent article, hopefully specifically for Centos7. 2) I'm on a structured, VLAN network. Will I have to put a WIFI card into my Centos server to give it a presence on the WIFI before this
