Well, I finally got into the naming game also. It's also because I now run my own DNS on my network and well, now I had to ;)It started with an old sparcstation 2 I owned (now sold), eventually, after some research, I decided to name it after it's 'codename' and that's Calvin. Ever since, the codename of a machine is the first resource I check for a hostname, and if the machine doesnt have a codename, well then I just have to be a little more original... Here we go: Apollo, Mac Classic II Elsie, Mac LC 475 Fridge, Quadra 800 Crusader, Performa 6320 non-mac: Osirix, SGI Challenge S R5000SC/180 Ghettorouter, K6-2/333, OpenBSD router/firewall/DNS Burnmeister, P133, external yamaha scsi-burner. HTPC, Duron 900 Dondervogel, Athlon 1400 (dondervogel is the literal dutch translation of thunderbird...) My network is called macstuff.local , so the proper dns-name of the machines is, for instance, elsie.macstuff.local for the LC475 macstuff being the name of my studenthouse where i used to live and we didn't even have a mac there (long story...) :) http://mark.is-a-geek.org/ a Classic II, a LC475, a Quadra 800 and some other hardware :-) |

I can't remember the exact specs, but around 300MB of RAM. ~8GB SCSI drive. USB card 17" Apple display And prolly a USB CD-RW drive. (Yes, I know how badly USB drives suck) But free is good. And I have a 266MB G3 card on my table for it.

Very nice...although you may want to replace your USB drive + card with a FW or USB/FW card and drive. It'll be much faster!
