Re: How to setup a Home server?
It will be much is easy if you have Linux Operating System for installing Home server,To install such a system you will need the following:
The Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon server CD, available here:http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.10/ubun...erver-i386.iso
A fast internet connection
A PC with at least 2 hard disks, one for the Ubuntu operating system and one for data storage

The hard disks for data storage in the file server must be formatted in the NTFS format. You can use the Gparted live CD to do this job, download the iso from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...kage_id=173828

I assume that you already know how to install a hard drive. I also assume that you knew how to make it a master or slave, you’ve checked to make sure that it shows up in Bios, and that it was installed properly.
