Hello,
I am going into some unwalked territory for me and thought I would ask
the collective wisdom so often found here (how's that for flattery?)
My company has the opportunity of adding many more domains (bringing the
total to about 180 or so) to our Red Hat 6.0 Linux Server. The domains
would be primarily for web but also email.
The sites will be mostly static, but we are moving towards more database
driven sites using PHP, Perl/CGI scripts. We will be running Cold Fusion
when it is released. We also will be installing MySQL and/or Postgres. I
want to install a web ail reader like IMP eventually too. And there are
two sites using SSL (Red Hat Secure Server) but we will be adding sites
to use the SSL for ourselves and clients.
Currently I have running:
Red Hat Linux Secure Server, RH 6.0
Pentium II 400
256MB Ram
Swap of 128MB (which doesn't seem to be touched right now)
Adaptec 2920 scsi card
The web sites are on a SCSI hard drive - Western Digital Enterprise 6GB
I Tar to Jaz disk every night
An IDE hard drive is used for the system files and home directories
(which have some websites)
3Com 3c905b network card plugged into 100mb port on a switch
X isn't running.
Main items running are Apache, SSL, ftp, Sendmail, pop3d, Majordomo, PHP,
perl scripts.
So my question is how much more hardware is needed (for one server) to
host all this? Or maybe I don't need anymore hardware?.
What are the opinions and experiences with a large number of domains like
this?
Thanks for any insight, it is much appreciated.
