Hi all,
I'm busy downloading the Fedora ISO's - my plan is
to use a spare PC as a server for my web development, as well as a Media
Server.
What I am planning to do is to use a drive caddy
with one HDD with XP Pro, running IIS5.1 and MS SQL Server 2000, for
local development & testing of ASP coded websites, and another HDD with
Fedora, running Apache and mySQL Server, for local development & testing of
PHP coded websites.
My plan for a Media Server is the following:

Now...my questions...
Where is the best place to find out information on
setting up a PC as a development server - somewhere that lists the programs
needed and how to configure them. I am running a wireless network, although I
might hardwire the server to the router for more stability.
Anyone have any useful sites or tips they could
send me? Bear in mind that I am a Linux newbie (although I did experiment
with RedHat 8 a while back), but am experienced with computers as I also
provide IT support for my clients (from fixing PC problems to building new
PC's).
Thanks,
Peter
