Ok...now I just got two new eservers in and it is awesome... I want to put SuSE Firewal on one and Email Server III on the other Both are PIII 1Ghz processors ATA100 Raid with two 20.4 GB hard drives 7200RPMs Two network Cards... 100MPs (in each one) Except one has 256 MB memory The other has 512 Mb Memory Now 24,000 dollar question is: Would it be better to use the 512MB as the firewall or Email Server III I would think that since the firewall is just throwing packets back and forth that I don't need something with a lot of memory. While the email server will be dealing with Cyrus Imap, Skyrix Green, Apache, plus getting muptiple users using different functions of the server. I would think that you would want the one with more memory for Email Sever III. Would I be way off base? Or would it make much of a difference if I used an older PIII 700mhz machine for the firewall and give it lots of harddrive space for the logs. Would it make sense to have such a high end machine for a firewall?
