GNU/Linux: Replacing a Dead Router with a Linux System
,----[ Quote ]
| Enter an old Dell Dimension XPS R400 PC that has
| been gathering dust in the closet. It has an
| 80GB Western Digital IDE drive, a Startech
| 10/100 NIC and 192MB of RAM in it. I received
| this old PC from a client that bought a new,
| custom built system from my company in October
| 2007. He no longer needed the Dell and was just
| going to trash it. Instead I convinced him to
| let me wipe the drive, install Mandriva 2008 on
| it and try to sell it on eBay. It did not sell
| when I listed it. The client did not want it
| back, so I just stuck it in the IT junk closet
| with several other old systems and flaky
| monitors. I decided to make this old Dell PC
| into my ânewâ router. Since it already has
| Mandriva 2008 on it I figured I could use that
| to get routing going and then upgrade the
| Mandriva later.
