Will sparc2's run solaris 8???  What OS do you need to run a Sparc2? can =
a sparc2 be used as a client on a Solaris 8 server?

How much Ram and how many gig hard drive would I need to make a Sparc 10 =
run Solaris 8 efficiently as a server?

I am just getting into Unix (I took the first really rudimentary course) =
and want to buy a couple of machines (3??) to set up a small practice =
(educational) network that will hook up to the internet,  I am lookiing =
at a Sparc20 a Sparc10 and a Sparc2 for the network.  Will this work? I =
will either use a sparc20 or sparc10 for the server. What specs will I =
need?

I also have a PII 233MMX running Linux and a PIII 450 running Win 98. Is =
there a way to hook these into a Sparc Solaris 8 network with a Sparc10 =
or sparc 20 as server?

I hope I'm not intruding. This seems to be a chat group for people in =
the know, and I am going to need a lot of help if I am going to do =
this..=20
