    I want to change my Windows server to a Linux server but can not find
    out what programs
    to use or if it is possible.

    I have goggled and looked at a lot of how-tos but I can not find out if
    I can set up a server to replace
    the proxy server I have now running windows-98, proxy+, and Sygate
    Personal Firewall.

    The proxy server is a Pentium 200Mhz with 32MB of ram with a 2GB hard
    drive hooked to a dial-up
    56K modem. It feeds a LAN through a hub. On the LAN is a network
    printer, and other computers
    running, Windows 2000, Windows98, Linux-Debian and Linux-Suse8.2. All on
    the LAN have fixed
    IP addresses and the ISP is obtained automatically.

    My ISP lets you have 6 different mail accounts, so I have two accounts
    and my wife has her one
    email address.

    The proxy server will auto dial and get mail at a predetermined time
    frames form the ISP with out the
    other computers turned on. When I come up on a Linux computer I get my
    email and surf the web
    with Mozilla or my wife can come up on Windows2000 with Mozilla and will
    the do the same. We
    also surf at the at the same time.

    Is there any free software out there for Linux-Debian that will let me
    do this. Or do I have to stay
    with W-98 for a server.

    If any one can give me a list of software I need and briefly how to do
    it. Please let me know so I
    Can get rid of Windows.

    Thanks
    Bill Kalebaugh
