We was forced to reinstall our news server and I just wonder if anyone have any comments/suggestions to our 
current setup:

Machine:
P/133
64MB ram (Soon to be 128 MB)
4x Quantum Empire (2GB)
1x Quantum Fireball (500MB)

Disk configuration
1x Quantum Empire - root device
3x Quantum Empire striped with ccd (Ileave: 16 = 8kb) for /var/spool/news
1x Quantum Fireball - /usr/lib/news (News configuration to avoid excessive I/O on the root dev.)

The disks are connected to two Adaptec 7850 controllers.  the news related disks alone on the second 
adaptec and the root dev on the first.

Inn is configured with the default setup from the FreeBSD ports collection (Except for pathnames etc etc).

Does this look like a reasonable setup?  This news server does not handle any feeds (Except for the incoming 
feed from our provider).  Only client access. (For now).
