I will have a dedicated server some time this week to host
mindprod.com. This will let me run any software I please since all I
can do is blow myself up.
The next box is an Intel D865DBS A76646-001 motherboard.
I has a 100 Mbit pipe to the Internet
It will run 64 bit NET BSD 50.1 Unix
It has a 4 gig ram
1.5 terabyte SATA hard disk ST31500341AS
PF firewall
Postgres SQL
Tomcat
VPN to let me treat its files as if they were local to my desktop
(fixing my biggest bugbear - failed FTP uploads).
Some of the projects I would like to tackle:
getting hit counts to work properly
serve random quotations and ads from the server rather than by
frequently uploading files.
host an SVN server.
produce and host some video and audio on politics, the environment,
programming etc.
index programming examples.
If you were in my position, what would you want to do?

"Any one who considers arithmetical methods of producing random digits is, of course, in a state of sin. For, as has been pointed out several times, there is no such thing as a random number — there are only methods to produce random numbers, and a strict arithmetic procedure of course is not such a method."
