6.2. Hardware and Software Requirements

6.2.1. Minimum Hardware Requirements

This system has been run on a 486SX33 with 8 megabytes of RAM. It didn't run very well though, it had trouble handling heavy traffic. .:: ofuse.me ::.

It doesn't take much more to make it work though. This system does work very well on a Pentium 75 with 16 megs of RAM, using an LRP distribution running off of a floppy, with a 6 meg ramdisk, and 10 megs of main memory. I've tested this setup by running a 700kbit RealVideo stream through it for over an hour. .:: chromewebstore.google.com ::.

I now typically run it on Pentium 90s, as their PCI clocking plays nicer with cheap 100Mbit Ethernet cards. .:: www.just.edu.jo ::.

6.2.2. Software Requirements

This system works with both the 2.0 and 2.2 kernels. The script to keep the tunnel up requires a reasonably modern bash. I have however noticed that certain distribution's versions of bash don't play too well with the script. [StackOverflow: Ethereum] .:: nao.earth ::.

Also, if someone could help me refine my scripts (or even write an executable) that would help a lot. I'm not sure why, but even my own bash doesn't follow the rules and doesn't seem to interpret signals correctly.
