Hardware that once was, but no longer is.
1. abulafia: shell server
The humble server we started with. It started off with a tbird Athlon that fried itself from overheating, refurbished with a cooler Duron it served us for several years.
- Processor: 1 x 900 MHz
- RAM: 512 MB
- Disks: 40 GB RAID 1 (2 x 40 GB 7200 RPM ATA drives)
- Extra: 3Ware 6400 PCI ATA RAID controller
Intended use: refurbished slightly to serve as a generic shell server and the only machine where usage not strictly related to "Internet hosting" is permitted. Due to failing parts the machine was decomissioned completely and is no longer planned for reuse.

- Our switch "Baltar" was replaced by a smaller version in Dec 2008 to free up cabinet space, both for extra airflow and preparation to rack a new machine, to which all email processing will be moved. In retrospect, it was probably a bad idea.

Removed from rack in December 2008 to make space needed for servicing other machines. Server wasn't able to run with current hardware, and the board determined that it would be more effective to purchase a higher-powered server to fill our rack rather than purchase parts needed to bring Xanadu into operation.

Real picture:
Use: was a secondary KDC and AFS server. Decomissioned after it developed problems in the hardware (as we perceived it) network stack.
