The SUN-ny side of the street

[UPDATE: Laziness prevails; we had ISOs of Solaris 10 kicking around, so that's what we're getting...]

New project... Solaris for the house servers.
It's all Flecker's fault, blame him.

With the impending return of one of our Sun boxes from co-location, we are going to be reinstall it and the Icecast machine with Solaris 9 (though I'm lobbying for Solaris 10) just because we can.

This is going to be fun.... wonder if work wants to sell off that Enterprise 250 that we decomissioned last year?

So what does this mean for the Geekhaus network? Let's take a step back and do the tally:

2 Windows XP Pro machines
1 Windows Me machine
1 FreeBSD 5.3 (i386) machine
2 Solaris machines

And coming down the pipe this year we should be adding:

1 Mac mini
1 iMac

If this keeps up, we are going to need a bigger switch and Gigabit Ethernet. Hmmm... now there's an idea...
