Hi,

I am looking to start a small business on webhosting. My Server Specs are:

-100Mbit connection
-1000GB Badnwidth, Not Shaped
-Intel Pentium 4 2,8Ghz
-1024MB DDRAM
-Debian Linux

It will be running:

-Apache
-PHP
-MySQL
-POP Server
-SMTP Server
-Plesk

The server it self requires only to handle 30-31 domains. When the server is full, another server of same specs will be created if it is capable of handling it.
In time, I will add more servers to the grid to indivlidually handle mySQL, POP & SMTP, but for now it is the one box.

Can my server handle it?

Yeah, your server can definitely hold a few clients. Essentially it depends on what those clients choose to do with the web hosting, which may cause server load, memory usage, etc.. Make sure your Hard drive is large enough to hold such clients, as you ARE offering them space. More or less, that's what you should be worrying about. The server itself is highly capable.

Hey, you don't seem to have SSH on that list. I would consider running that also, as it's one of the main ways most of us manage our server.
