Hello from an old year 1997 Machine!
This snac server is now running on a Micronics Spitfire with 2x Pentium II @ 233MHz and 512MB SD-RAM. Operating System is NetBSD 10.1, installed on a 120GB SSD (SATA->IDE converter)

OpenBSD wasn't able to run snac stable on this machine, it crashed after a few requests with "illegal instruction".

@amilatled Ah the memories. I set up a NetBSD server with Apache, PostgreSQL, Samba et.al. on a 2xPII 233 back in 2003.
It served the whole institute of Slavistic philology and ran until 2008.
Since I got almost no budget for hardware, I had to reuse the old machines other departments EoLed.

@amilatled And I even put the docs online, how to build a #NetBSD #Apache #PostgreSQL #Perl #Mason webserver

In case you want to set up a NetBSD 2.0 Webserver (and speak German), the doc is at

@[email protected] What a nice documentation, really cool! :)
(Gibt einen guten Anlass mal mit NetBSD 2.0 herumzuspielen! :p)
