Setting Up Colocation Server - Advisable or Not. Please Help
I am REALLY undecided at the minute as to whether I go with a dedictaed server or have a go at my own colo server! Mainly due to the technical side of things.
I am itching to go down the colo side, mainly because of the costs of using a dedicated server.
Experience in IT:
NT4 Server and workstation course
TCP/IP Win 2K and NT4
NT4 Optimisation and Troubleshooting
However did these about 2 years ago, and not used them much since, look after 2 NT4 servers at work now and local network.
Used to normal NT4 admin duties setting users, permissions, shares, backup, IIS4, look after Intranet at work, http referres. Set-up PC's on network, IP, Network printers, usual ping, tracert, host, lmhost, MySQL, MS Access, Little VB, PC support etc.
Not done anything much with DNS!!!.
Do I have a good grounding for colo or do I stick with dedicated.
This is driving me mad, I am afraid that if I go colo it may be above my head. however I am reluctant to pay for dedicated.
Any thoughts please.
