"http://ntama.uni-mainz.de" alias "http://ietpd1.sowi.uni-mainz.de"
aka "ftp://ntama.uni-mainz.de/pub/debian/unofficial/" is actually an
old 486DX2/66 with 32MB RAM which serves as X terminal, a FTP-Server,
and hosts a webserver with our online magazine "NTAMA". It runs slink
just fine but won't be upgraded to potato until i get a pentium
motherboard for it. Updating from hamm to slink was already enough
pain. :-(
Cheers, P. *8^)
