Information about this Linux Server
![[Picture of server]](images/bart.jpg)
This server is running the Fedora Core 2 Linux, with kernel version 2.6.5-1.358
Current uptime is 619 days, 11 hours, 42 minsThe current system clock reports the time/date to be: Sat 4 Sep 2010; 08:32:17 BST
The server's name is 'bart' with IP address 10.1.1.13, within the Curry family's
LAN. The router on 10.1.1.9 / 83.67.3.25 (i-83-67-3-25.freedom2surf.net) then
forwards 83.67.3.25:22 to 10.1.1.13:22 (SSH) and 83.67.3.25:80 to 10.1.1.13:80 (HTTP).
It is configured to act as a virtual host for all the domains that point to out IP
address (83.67.3.25) and then forward requests to the appropriate ports for
sites it does not handle (www.mcurry.co.uk on port 1337)
As you can see from the picture on the right, this server is a laptop, with
wireless connectivity to the internet. It is an old Toshiba with a 400 MHz
Pentium Celeron-mobile processor, and 128 MB RAM.
The hard drive on the
right is connected via USB for extra storage.
For those who have not already realised, I, Michael Curry (the owner of this
machine) am new to linux, and also a complete newbie to php / cgi scripts etc. I
have basic knowledge of web design (HTML) and how the server processes work, but
it is quite likely that this machine may well disappear unexpectedly if
something goes wrong...
[Update] After being on for (practically) 7 months (a few reboots in that period, hence uptime does not reflect)
it would appear the HDD is showing the strain. It is quite possible that it will give up soon,
in which case there will be some downtime whilst a new HDD is bought / aquired, fitted and linux reinstalled on here.
Long term plans
The long term plan for this server, is to also host www.mcurry.co.uk, which
currently holds a backup of my documents (certain parts shared via usename &
password on a forced https connection).
[Update] After temporarily moving the hosting of mcurry.co.uk here (HDD failure), it has become clear that this machine / Linux setup is not powerful enough to handle the SQL requests for the phpbb forum. Therefore, until I can either silence moe or get a more powerful laptop to use as a server, the current situation will remain
