Networks Will this work?

Ok, I'm setting up a Celeron/400 with 64 megs of RAM, 2 gig of HDD space and onboard everything as a server. (Only thing I'm putting in the case is the mobo, a PSU and the hard drives ) I'm gonna run Win2k Pro on it, set it up with ICS on my Voyager ADSL modem, and also use it for http.

Will this work? Would I be better off with 2k Server?

 

Yep it'll work fine

 

Thing is I'm using it to share the connection between XP boxes, will there be any problems with XP machines sharing the connection on the 2k box?

 

I think you will be better of using it as a smoothwall box. www.smoothwall.org or the latest ipcop beta that support internal pci adsl cards and external usb adsl modems.

 

but then he wont be able to use it as a webserver?

 

True didn't read that bit (again!!!)

 

Not at all, the XP/2k networking is virtually identical and works together brilliantly

 

RTT is correct, I've tried using the ICS on everything from 98SE to XP, and it's always worked. Doesn't work quite as well as a hardware router (obviously), but if you're on a budget it's all good.
