[FX.php List] Economical Mac Server setup

[Hank Shrier]

Have you considered having someone else host the files?  It may be more cost
effective. It will certainly be far less frustrating.

Subject: [FX.php List] Economical Mac Server setup

 

I am setting up a economical fm/web server for my client.

I have been trying to get an old Dell Windows 2000 server set up for FM
Server 8 advance and iis to host FM files and FX/PHP. Among some other
headaches was the PHP install. I am not novice when it comes to PCs,
servers, Macs etc. and this process was the most frustrating setup I have
ever come across.
I gave up.

I am going to buy a used Mac to host Apache FX/ PHP and FMSA. I know there
is a min configuration for FMSA but is there a min config for Apache / PHP
on OSx? There will be only a hand full of users logged on  from FM Clients
and 1 or 2 web clients.
Any 2 cents is appreciated.

Thanks,
John Funk
