What are the system requirements for this server?
A Linux VPS account with 1 gb memory and 30 gb of drive space will do nicely for this project. It’s possible to run with less memory than that, even as low as 256 mb memory, but you’ll have to give up email virus scanning and the webmin graphical interface for Linux. I strongly recommend at least a 512 mb account, but 1 gb or more is preferred. If you run your server with everything, including the ClamAV email filter, you will need about 600 mb, so it’s nice to have 1 gb of memory, or more if you can afford it. I happen to be running 2 gb.
It’s easy to find economical accounts like that for under $10/month, and if you look around you can find them below $5/month. Even $2 to $3 per month is not unheard of if you pay quarterly or biannually. Look around at lowendbox.com for the best deals.
