I've got a hp microserver but haven't yet set it up. I've never set up a server from scratch before, do you have any advice or guidance or any good tutorials? Good to hear that they're serving you well though
- Adirael 13y agoDepends on what you want to achieve with it. I installed Ubuntu Server, threw and configured SAMBA and a small LAMP server on it and not much more. For getting the backups from the production servers I use rdiff-backup and cron. I'm not using RAID at the moment as it suits me better to just have four big drives. A friend of mine is running the same setup plus a Plex Media Server and some small toys. My Twitter and HN handle are the same and my email is on my profile if you have any specific question.
- WickyNilliams 13y agoThanks for the info, that's kind of what I want it for - backups, general file storage and possibly a development server. I'll be sure to get in touch if I need some advice, the offer of help is much appreciated.
