Its Advanced Packaging Tool makes the downloading and installing of even complex server software as simple as a mouse click. Once installed, all software may be tracked automatically for updates and security patches, which are downloaded and implemented. For ease of use combined with all the power to effectively manage your server, the Debian GNU/ Linux distribution is simply unmatched.

  Ready & Configured

  System software provided on the Dolphin Range includes the SSL-ready Apache web server with PHP, Perl, Java servlet and JSP support, Qmail - a secure and reliable mail server, BIND for DNS management and the MySQL database server, as well as all the other tools and facilities available through our shared packages. These are configured and ready to use.

The Orca and BM go one step further by introducing RAID to the Dolphin Range.
