• StarTech manual (local copy).

The StarTech Server Remote Control External KVM over IP provides access to systems that may have a degraded network. It allows us to monitor Power-On Self Test (POST), configure BIOS/CMOS, and even reinstall operating system software. It must be connected to another multiple port KVM in order to have access to more than one server.

Use: Initially, server was set up by Clinton Ebadi. It's purpose is to serve as a secondary KDC/AFS server instead of Krunk, and an email server (all email processing).

(The 1x2 GB RAM module was acquired from Newegg, and the two disks from ServerSupply. Purchases were made in Sep 2008, but ServerSupply took good 3 weeks to deliver).

abulafia: shell server

• 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.
