I have an old 33 Gb scsi IBM xeon. The really old black ones that
weigh 20 kilos and make a hell of a noise. I want to use it as a
router with squid, dansguardian and firewall. It would be part of a 21
node lan sharing around 60Gb of files via nfs. I can set it up using a
keyboard and monitor but after that it would have to be accessed by
ssh. I thought I'd just let yast do it and not let it have a
separate /home but then I read so much stuff about /var for squid and
everyone suddenly becomes a router expert.

Can anyone give me a one liner as to how I partition it? Or tell me
where to put it:-)


I would allocate 10G for root, 1G swap space and the rest for /var.




How much swapping will a router do?
