To: hackers@freebsd.org Date: Tue, 3 Oct 1995 11:23:47 -0500 (CDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] Content-Type: text Content-Length: 371 Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I've been trying to get a FreeBSD box to provide mail, www, and news service for our internal use for some time. I finally found an old HP Vectra RS/20 (20 MHz 80386), stuck in some spare RAM from a dead Sun-3, and installed FreeBSD on it. Works like a champ. Serves news faster than the System V r3.2 multibus-2-based dual-486/33 box it's replacing. Great work, guys!
