It was my first +webserver, dns-server and mail-server. I recieved it as a gift +from a kindergarten, because it was too slow for them. +The name is derived from the German phrase "suppelte herum", +which means "is still working, but may break if you look at it +too strong". + +You actually should have seen it, it consisted of the following hardware: + + Processor: Intel Pentium 120Mhz + RAM: 48 MiB (16+16+8+8) + Harddisk: 2 GiB IDE (PIO mode/16Bit ;) + NIC: Some 3Com PCI 10Mbit (3c509?) + CDROM: Something like that appeared to be installed + Floppy 1x3,5" , 2x5,25" + +### bruehe.schottelius.org + +Later, in 2003, `suppe` was replaced by `bruehe`. One day, broth ran +into the `bruehe`, and `bruehe` is the German word for broth. + +The first version of `bruehe` had the following technical features: + + Processor: Pentium3 550Mhz + RAM: 640 MB (256+128+128+128) + Harddisk (scsi): 3* 4 GB scsi-3 (raid 1, one spare disk) + Harddisk (ide): 3* 40 GB ide/udma100 (raid 1, one spare disk) + NIC (lan): 3Com Corporation 3c905 100BaseTX [Boomerang] + NIC (dmz): 3Com Corporation 3c905 100BaseTX [Boomerang] + NIC (inet): Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

And an additional NIC was put into. + +At the time `bruehe` was replaced by `creme` (see below) it became +the firewall for the lan at home. + +### creme.schottelius.org + +Because a customer of me broke a contract, I had to keep +a very nice dual Xeon server back. This one became +`creme.schottelius.org`.
