I am using an AlphaStation 200 (with only 32M of RAM, even :-) for
several things:
- DNS server
- NFS server (it has a Promise IDE controller on it with a
13G UDMA disk)
- POP server (qpopper package)
- SMTP server (postfix in base distribution)
- WWW server (apache package)
- Database server (mysql package)
...with the apache, php3, and mysql packages, along with another
piece of software (which I haven't done a package for yet), I have
a nice little webcalendar :-)
I download all my email to my laptop using fetchmail, and read it there
with mutt.
Anyway, I did pretty much everything from pkgsrc ... all works nicely.
