[RULE] Athens server status report 1

[C David Rigby]

Hello Richard,

That works well for me, as the machine that is my current firewall is 
also running Debian testing, and it has a 2nd 3GB HDD that should be 
sufficient to hold the testing website.

So far, the only thing that it is configured to serve is sshd & apache 
1.33. But I have established a DNS redirect of rule-test.dyndns.org, and 
I can log in remotely via ssh and I can view the "congrats - you've got 
apache" default web page. So, that is a start.

However, I am traveling to the USA for the next two weeks. Assuming the 
equipment does not go down while I am away, I can begin assembling the 
test site once we know the Apache branch and SQL database we need to run 
to conduct tests. Connecting to the computer here in Paris should not be 
difficult - I've done it before.

Of course, if I get fumble-fingered and mess up the firewall script from 
afar, things will probably grind to a halt. I'll try to leave that 
alone. Performance on this old hardware (P200 w/64 MB RAM), and no 
traffic-shaping done yet, may be so poor as to make the whole thing 
unusable. If so, I can ameliorate things when I get back by tuning the 
firewall/router config on this machine, as well as activating the real 
server that sits behind it. As of yet, the intended server hardware is 
not set up with the Debian testing distribution.

In the meantime, anyone interested in helping setup the test server 
should write to me, and we can set up an account for you on the current 
machine once the basics are in place.

Regards,
CDR
