Server
You don’t need to buy a new server to use LabStats. The server components (web server, database) all install on to the same machine, which does not need to be a server-class computer. Here are our suggestions for a minimum configuration:
Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 2007, Server 2003, or Server 2008
PIII 700 or equivalent
512 MB RAM
5 GB Hard Drive Space for Database
2 GB Hard Drive Space for Logs
This minimum configuration will easily support up to 8 labs, with an average of 30 computers per lab. If you have more labs or computers, you will need more hardware.
**This machine should NOT be running any other web server or database server software.**
