Get that machine you are using for a doorstop, it will work fine. 32Megs on
a 486 is overkill for this application if DNS is all you are running on it.

Now if availability is a concern, you have other issues.  Peak to Peak
Internet runs full RAID-5 on all such servers since *any* downtime is a
no-no/badthang(tm).
