The very original NetReg box was a P-90 with probably 16M RAM and
probably a 200-500M harddrive running on redhat 5.0 ...the NetReg code
is basically the same since then...i don't know if thats good or bad :)

The current machine is a P-200 with 32M...it handles upto about 1500
leases (including those pools which registration is not required).

seriously, this machine is overkill but its the oldest *paperweight* we
could find.
