But you do NOT want to do that! If that one machine crashes or goes off the air, your domains are totally dead and nonexistent. Even having a secondary machine is not all that much better. Network outages, etc., all happen. You really want to have an off-site secondary, preferably with very little in common with your own network connection. Find another small ISP and arrange to mutually provide secondary service for each other. That is the BEST solution. ...
