Does anyone know what the minimum requirments are for MacOS X Server? I can't find it on apple's web site. I want to run it on a 90MHz 601 but it wouldn't even install on a dual 200MHz 604e!?

MacOS X Server officially requires a G3 (G4 for version 1.2) PowerMac with 64 MB of RAM, its stock hard drive, and or one of a very limited number of SCSI cards/drives/RAID arrays.
However, you can install on unsupported hardware, and many havehad success with 75/76/85/86/95/9600 PowerMacs as well as a couple of clones, but you're idea to install on a 601 will likely fail, and I think that MacOS X Server would choke on what to do with a dual 604e motherboard too...what computers are you trying to install on anyway?

Well i was going to buy an old 7200/90 but it tried to install it on my 7500/200MP just for the hell of it but it wasn't having it at all.
What about appleshareIP can that do FTP serving and webserving?

if all you're looking for is some web & ftp serving abilities, you might be better off looking to a Mac-OS-based solution (Quid Pro Quo from Social Engineering, http://www.socialeng.com/ i think, is a free web server). For FTP serving, Rumpus (i forget who makes it) seems the most powerful, but it's not free.
I seem to remember a java FTP server being reported around a little bit, and Hotline Communications used to make a basic FTP server. otherwise, of course, you could run Linux PPC and you get ftpd, telnetd, Apache httpd, and a whole host of other stuff in it in a Linux-based environment, best of all, it's FREE! ;-)
Hope that helps, Angus D
