What's on my net. (vive la révolution!)

I purchased a new Laptop last month, it's powerful enough to do all my development work on it - So my previous workstation has been relegated to menial tasks.

I spent yesterday refreshing my home network - several went from Windows machines to FreeBSD machines (vive la révolution! ).... others were re-purposed....


Here's my home network setup:


Swan - (My Main system) - laptop - Vista - Dell Studio 1735 Intel T9500, 4gb ram, ATI 3650HD. It originally came with a T5750... I bought a T9500 from Newegg and plugged her in.

Flynn - (Print Server) - laptop - Win XP - Compaq Evo n610c, Pentium 4 2ghz, 756mb ram. It's serving a Canon MF3200 - which only has windows drivers.

Thor - (Living room - surfing) - laptop - Vista - HP DV9000, AMD Turion X2 TL50, 1.6ghz 4gb ram. It a 17" - same as the Dell.

Scarecrow - (Firewall) - FreeBSD 6.0 - AMD Athlon 2000+ 1.67ghz, 512meg ram (setup to use pfPorts)

Pearl - (File Server) - FreeBSD 7.0 - AMD Athlon 64 3200+ x2, 2g ram, 1.5TB total hard drive space on 5 drives

Heron - (Web Server, Test) - FreeBSD 7.0 - AMD duron 1.4ghz, 1gb ram, 250gb HD

Tron - (CVS source code repository) - FreeBSD 6.0 - Intel 920 dual, 4gb RAM, 2x250GB sata drives. This was my old development machine.

Ma3a - (Test machine) - HPUX - HP 712/100 PARISC, 100mhz, 160meg ram, 4gb external SCSI drive, 2 tape drives... useful for network penetration testing....



I have everything patched into a DLink DES-1026G 24-Port 10/100 + 2 Gigabit 1000BASE-TX Switch. I bought it on ebay brand new for $30 around 5-6 years ago; a great deal.

I also have a Netgear WNR834B Wireless N router, and another SMC barricade Wireless B router.....

I have a lot of old (non networked) machines from the 1980's and 1990's - various Apple Mac's classics, Apple II's, a Tandy COCO, several old IBM 8088's, and 80286, 80386's...... lots of old systems from the 1980's and early 1990's). Most are in storage bins only to be booted up every other year to make sure they're not bricked.
None of these have ethernet - but all have modems. I'd love to try and wire them to an internal homebrew PBX and connect them to my network one day....
