it’s been a while since I’ve setup a webserver at home but I thought it’s about time. So I have gathered up my old equipments (Dual PII-300 system), suckered people into giving me their old parts they are not using (2GB ultra wide SCSI HDD from a co-worker and P133 machine from Ce). After I was done with all the setup over the weekend, I have following:
one Mandrake 9.1 Workstation and one WinXP workstation in Green Zone subnet (completely private and protected by firewall)
one Mandrake 9.1 web/ftp/file server in Orange Zone subnet (otherwise referred to as DMZ where it is isolated from rest of the network)
Smoothwall firewall out of P133 and 200MB HDD for web proxy. Three NIC taking care of all the TCP/IP traffic.
of course, I have my wireless network behind another firewall behind the smoothwall. Now, I just have to configure the softwares to do what I want them to do. Which might result in this blog getting relocated to my server at home and say fairwell to blogger.com… (that is if I don’t get lazy)
