We are looking into starting up a small ISP to provide filtered
internet access to our area. We will also offer web hosting services.
Because of the filtering, we will need to run a proxy server, and we
will also be providing a real audio feed for a local radio station.

My question is is this: We are on a rather tight budget to start out
with. What would be the best congiguration to handle this set up? I
was thinking of starting with 4 servers (All running FreeBSD of
course). One for PPP dial up and email, the second running the web
server, the third running the proxy server, and the fourth running
the real audio server. Can anyone give me and ideas on whether this
is the best way to go? And if not, can anyone recommend a better way?

Also, what is the best way to provide intially, 24 dial up
connections. I assume a multi-port serial card, and then just hooking
up 24 digital modems. But that part is kind of new to me.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike.
