Your going to rely on an old slow worn out drive to hold your OS.
get a hardware raid card and mirror the 2 x 60 gig drives, use 500 meg for
the OS and 1 gig for /var.

miscellaneous stuff, all SCSI RAID5 on the servers such as database, NFS
and network monitoring. I just like being able to

In my case all Asian email is spam, or at least 99.99% of it, Im more than
happy to block out large netblocks, indeed that is what I do via the access

It would be good to improve my system to be more selective using rbl's, but

Start at /var as 1 gig, this should prove adequate for most things. I assume
/var/www will be your document root? think of space towards this unless your
putting the domains into /home/
Is there lots of mail? 3 gig is probably a fair start for /var/spool/mail
I am not aware /var/lib changes much
I would strongly disagree, partitioning is very important. Logging should be
separated out so that a full /var wont stop logging in.
I would also setup a separate /usr and /home, and depending on what was
going on a /opt as well.

Think you will have to go to a 4 port NIC, Im not aware of a 2 port one,
I know of 2 made but I have not tried either, one is a dlink unit (the other
intel or 3com?)and Ive used the single port version so the chipset works,
but not if 4 are seen by Debian (you can send me one to try if you want
)
