This machine is in the process of being built into the shell of a bookshelf stereo system. Once completed it will serve as a network music player, complete with a remote. | | | Intrepid

I own several computers on a small network. This topic tracks the network layout, function, and operating systems of each machine. In addition, the specifications of each machine are recorded here.
Network layout
The network is currently only one segment. This runs off an 8-port 10/100 Mbit switch in my room. The hub connects via uplink to the WRT-54G router.
Future plans call for an 8-port 10/100/1000 Mbit switch with most machines running at 100 Mbit. The main file server will have a Gigabit NIC allowing multiple machines to access it at their maximum bandwidths. Six tape processing machines and Dauntless or Intrepid will initially be connected to this switch which will also link to the 10/100 hub. These plans hinge on a Cassette to MP3 conversion deal.
Computers
DS9
| Processor | AMD K6-2 |
| Speed | 500 Mhz |
| Memory | 314 MB |
| Hard disk | 20 GB |
| NIC Speed | 100 Mbit |
| IP Address | 192.168.0.100 |
| OS | Debian (2.4.x Kernel) |
DS9 serves as a webserver redirect for qbfreak.dyndns.org. It also hosts NightMAREbot and TWikiBot on SluggyMARE and #twiki, respectively.
Plans: DS9 will possibly become a file and subversion server, providing a centralized location to store all my data. A larger HDD will be required.
Dauntless
| Processor | AMD Athlon XP 3200+ |
| Speed | 3.2 Ghz |
| Memory | 1024 MB |
| Hard disk | ?? GB |
| NIC Speed | 100 Mbit |
| IP Address | 192.168.0.101 |
| OS | Multiple |
Dauntless used to (and should) be my primary desktop machine. It dual-boots between Windows XP Professional and Fedora Core 5. Fedora Core is the primary OS and Windows XP will be removed once all documents and settings have been migrated or saved. Dauntless provides the most noise and heat of my computers and would benefit from a case designed with sound level and airflow in mind.
Plans:
- For to cassette tape conversion
- Install a Gigabit NIC
- Install larger HDD
- Set up automatic MP3 compression of incoming Wave files
- Set up automatic CD image building of MP3 files
- Migrate/save Windows XP files and settings
- Re-install Windows XP
- Possible multi-boot with Windows Vista RC1
Prometheus
| Processor | Pentium II |
| Speed | 400Mhz (?) |
| Memory | ?? MB |
| Hard disk | ?? GB |
| NIC Speed | 100 Mbit |
| IP Address | Unknown or DHCP |
| OS | Fedora Core 4 (5?) |
Prometheus is the heart of a robotic CD/DVD burner/duplicator. It has two Dual Layer DVD+/-RW drives and a serial controlled robotic arm. Redhat's CDRTools with DVD extensions is installed, and several scripts have been written to automate disc duplication.
Plans: Prometheus needs a complete re-write of the duplication scripts, as well as the ability to accept and burn images from other machines on the network.
Intrepid
| Processor | AMD Sempron 2200+ |
| Speed | 1.6 Ghz |
| Memory | 512 MB |
| Hard disk | 120 GB |
| NIC Speed | 100 Mbit |
| IP Address | DHCP Assigned |
| OS | Multiple |
Intrepid is currently my primary desktop machine. It multi-boots between Windows XP Professional (primary), Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista RC1.
Plans: Migrate data from Windows XP and multi-boot between Ubuntu and other GNU/Linux distributions. Possibly install AGP video card.
Unnamed Dell GX1
| Processor | Pentium II |
| Speed | 400-500 Mhz (?) |
| Memory | ?? MB |
| Hard disk | ?? GB |
| NIC Speed | 10 Mbit (?) |
| IP Address | DHCP Assigned |
| OS | Debian |
Plans: Repair power supply and install Windows Server 2003, configure as a domain controller. I'd like to use this machine to centralize my users as well as indicate where their documents are stored (DS9).
