Technical Specifications

Under Destruction Icon

Swampside.ORG runs on an old HP Vectra (233 Mhz Pentium 2, 96 Megs of RAM). It has proven itself a predator by eating various other old machines and integrating a series of hard drives from its prey. It is a poor predator in that it still doesn't have a lot of space. One day, it too will be eaten by a stronger predator. This is the cycle of computer life.

It is running Linux (Slackware), Apache, Squirrelmail and a lot of other things I won't bother to mention.

Net connectivity was via a SDSL modem, but having to go through a Service Provider, local Telco and third party intermediary meant I had too many problems that took too long to resolve. I'm now on a business account cable modem.

All of this is subject to change with little or no notice.

Querries should be directed to admin@swampside.org. These querries may take a while to answer. The admin(s) have day jobs and support is sporadic at best.
