Hi all

Iam looking for advice....

I have a few sites I want to host on the Abyss x2 server.

Site 1, gets about 100-200 hits a day, but that will change LOL

Site 2, gets avg 1000 hits a day.

Iam also running a VOIP server and a mail server.

I have a third site which I would love to add, its popular with web search engines and members usually has about 10 online at peak times.

My question, what kind of limits should I expect using a Dual 800mhz on 512mb ram, with a 3mb DSL connection. As I said before in another post, its a piece of sh*t but its doing its job.

Does anyone know the math on something like this ?

Thanks in advance for your comments
Marty

The main bottleneck is always going to be your upstream. Do you have SDSL? If not, I'd assume 3mb DSL is your download speed, not upload. What is the upstream on your connection?

The server should handle most things you throw at it, more memory will always be a plus but I wouldn't worry too much about the CPU speed.

I just had to comment in this thread. I have 4 hosts declared in Abyss Web Server X2 (v 2.0.6). I am running nph-proxy on one of them. I probably get at least 2500 *page* hits/da. and I have only a 500/250 dsl connection. I *do* have a nice processor, so that helps with the overhead of nph-proxy but I am just amazed at how much I can serve with Abyss and DSL.

I am actually surpassing in page hits with my local machine the total of page hits I have with my paid webhost.

I think Abyss is an amazing and revolutionary software!

My 2 cents worth :)

Regards,
Axis

I run 8 websites on my 2000kbps/200kbps connection. I get over 5000 hits to the server per day and its capable of much more. You can see my server specs below in my signature.

Very nice sig, I run a similar one, not on my own server, no way man, they bandwidth for that a month is about 45gigs

I just iframe it through a site http://badhq.ie/modules.php?name=BF2_Sigs

Or another one which pulls data from EA ( the game people ) this one runs on abyss cause most hosts block certain ports

http://badhq.ie/modules.php?name=Stats&file=search



Anyway yeah i see what you guys mean about the specs, I'll probably just get some extra memory and leave it at that, not that I need it, but i'll feel better :)

BTW whats the deal with @AOL emails is there a trick to get mails sent through there servers. Does the hMailer work ?

Iam using the first one i downloaded ArGoSoft mail Server

If you mean why can't you send mail to AOL users, AOL have been dropping direct mails from system without valid reverse DNS for a while now... Not a lot you can do about it as a home user unless you have an extremely helpful ISP.
