two questions

[oz]

Hello,
	1.) I recently got my hands on a box that I would like to install FreeBSD
and Solaris 8 on.  Can anyone point me to a how-to on the easiest/best way
to go about this? For example, which OS should I install first? What boot
loader should I be using?

	2.) I am connected to the internet with Mediaone.  I have a sparc station2
on my LAN that just sits there wasting electricity.  I would like to turn
this box into a mail/squid/dns/webserver just to get some sys admin practice
other than trying to secure my boxes.  Has anyone ever set up a server like
this off their mediaone cable connection?  I already have another box set up
with Apache, but can this be done for mail?  So people would be able to
access http://whatever.ne.mediaone.net, and also be able to email
oz at whatever.ne.mediaone.net?

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

.:oz:.
