I think I can speed up DNS response for users by moving the DNS server from being shared on an old Exchange server (NT4-server) onto a separate Linux server. There are 2 or 3 dozen users.
1) What is the min speed machine that would be effective for this type of DNS server? 2) Would it be better to have a faster ordinary machine or use an old server class machine ( I have an old Proliant 1500 server around , which is like a P150 or so). 3) I have a copy of Suse Linux Standard Server (which I haven't used yet, so I am a Linux virgin), which says it can do DNS. Would this be suitable? Thanks all!, gr- posted
