Hello! I am Jan, the server owner and I write this <i>about us</i> page on behalf of my team members.<br />
|
||||
We are a group of students hosting a variety of services on an old server that I found on the sidewalk.
|
||||
These services provide the necessary foundation to host a few school projects.

We are in the process of finishing school and our last semester in computer science is a project of our choice.

Our main project is a social media platform but we are hosting some other projects as well. Turns out, we are better at
|

general server management and providing web space for others than actual software development...

The server at its current place in the basement

The server is a 2006 Dell PowerEdge [whatever number goes here] featuring the 2.66 GHz socket 771 equivalent of some
|
||||
Intel Core 2 Quad which was considered powerful back then (I guess?). Memory wise, the system has to offer the incredible
|
||||
amount of four GiB ECC DDR2 RAM which do not quite fulfill the performance and capacity requirements of
|
||||
most real world applications today but are plenty to host some two or three files on a web server. <br />
|
||||
Basically, that thing is <b>*s l o w*</b> but more than enough for my private internet connection.
|
||||
Guess what, there might have been a reason why it was thrown out by its previous owners. <br />
|
||||
As for storage, the server came with three enterprise grade Dell branded Western Digitals (one of which since died) and I threw
|
||||
in the SSD I pulled from my old laptop as a boot disk. Another laptop hard drive was given to me by a friend but there are
|
||||
no free S-ATA connectors left. [If someone at our school wants to donate their old drive controller expansion card, feel
|
||||
free to approach me or one of my team mates. You’ll be the hero of the week and you will be given credit here.]<br />
|
||||
Oh, btw: It is worth mentioning the fan. Yes, only one fan (plus the one in the power supply). Before the server was moved
|
||||
to the basement it was the loudest device in the kitchen, easily capable of exceeding the noise level of my 15 year old
|
||||
fridge twice.

Okay. That should have given you a rough overview of the hardware. Now, let’s talk software. <br />
|
||||
We currently run Ubuntu Server with a custom installation capable of doing GUI stuff as well but we rarely use that.
|
||||
The best use I found so far is to access internal status web pages via OpenSSH with X forwarding and Firefox. <br />
|
||||
The server came with an installation of Windowze Server 2003 but we had no login credentials and who uses Microsoft
|
||||
products anyways? [BTW: The drives were filled with personal data of the employees. To all enterprises: PleAze WIPe
|
||||
THe DaTa Off All SERvERS YOU EVeR THrow OUt. You do not want to be in the place former NCIX employees found themselves in
|
||||
a few years ago.]<br />
|
||||
Apart from that, there is not much to say here except for the fact that Ubuntu has become worse over the time I used it and
|
||||
I’d not choose it again. It is just what I was (and still am) most familiar with.
