Server (#2) Server (#2)

Why a server? As noted earlier, I had a computer (ZDS desktop #G) lying around not being used. But realistically, I had thought of using my old desktop (#D) after migrating to my new desktop (#F).

So, some of the reasons.
- Good experience
- Save $10 a month from hosting current Web pages for www.softpats.com
- save $100 a year with register.com for emails, etc.
- able to put up other web sites, including Geriatric Tele Society, family, etc.
- potentially let daughter put one up.
- better control over email and email aliases.
- would really like to implement an email system that uses query / respone to eliminate spam. This would be esp. useful for my father who doesn't use email as much as he would like because of the hundres of spam messages he gets.
- setup listserve for Geriatirc Tele Society.
