Network Servers you can trust
Let Teacup Technology set-up and support your network server.
HISTORY
Linux is a free Unix-type operating system originally created by Linus Torvalds with the assistance of developers around the world. The source code for Linux is freely available to everyone.
With Linux server, there are no licence fees. So adding new pc's to your network becomes a breeze.
Linux servers aren't as resource hungry as other platforms therefore hardware requirements are much lower and more affordable.
Services your company will probably need in the near future.
PROXY SERVER
Is your bandwidth internet usage too high?
Do you suspect your staff is spending too much time on the web and not enough time doing their job?
Do your staff keep downloading virus infected files from the internet?
You want to stop your staff accessing sensitive websites?
A proxy server allows you to solve or answer all the above questions. Control internet usage and scan web sites before they open on the users pc. This is especially useful with South Africa's high bandwidth costs. Caching frequently accessed sites will speed up internet access. Block certain time consuming web sites like Facebook , Twitter or Youtube.
INTERNAL EMAIL SERVER

We will configure the server and router to allow remote access from anywhere in the world. Internal email sent to internal email addresses are delivered instantly. All email is filtered through spam filters and anti-virus applications. All this is be possible with out server and desktop licence fees.
BACKUP SERVER
Need to backup important data?
Don't want to spend a fortune on backup software?
Backup hardware too expensive?
Need to be notified if backups fail?
Need to backup data off site?
We can simply backup any data from and to any location on your network. Create mirrors or compressed backup files. No software licence fees. We can backup to multiple external hard drives rather than tape drives. This is a cheaper and a quicker solution. Simple triggers can be created to email or SMS you if backups fail. Files can be securely sent to any network drive, even through the internet using Secure Copy. All these backups are automatic and can be scheduled to run at any time.
FILE SHARING

Need to secure your data so sensitive data is accessed by only the correct people?
Need to automatically save desktop documents on the server?
Need to share printers accross the network?
Need to access files off site?
With our servers we can setup user and group based file sharing, this will allow access to files only by the people that should have access. We can hide folders and files or allow read only access. A printer can be setup on the server and shared to appropiate users on your network.
OTHER TOOLS
DHCP Server
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol automates network-parameter assignment to network devices from one or more fault-tolerant DHCP servers. Even in small networks, DHCP is useful because it can make it easy to add new machines to the network.
When a DHCP-configured client (a computer or any other network-aware device) connects to a network, the DHCP client sends a broadcast query requesting necessary information from a DHCP server. The DHCP server manages a pool of IP addresses and information about client configuration parameters such as default gateway, domain name, the DNS servers, other servers such as time servers, and so forth. On receiving a valid request, the server assigns the computer an IP address, a lease (length of time the allocation is valid), and other IP configuration parameters, such as the subnet mask and the default gateway. The query is typically initiated immediately after booting, and must complete before the client can initiate IP-based communication with other hosts.
APACHE WEB SERVER
The Apache HTTP Server, commonly referred to as Apache, is a web server notable for playing a key role in the initial growth of the World Wide Web. In 2009 it became the first web server to surpass the 100 million web site milestone. Apache was the first viable alternative to the Netscape Communications Corporation web server (currently known as Sun Java System Web Server), and has since evolved to rival other Unix-based web servers in terms of functionality and performance. The majority of web servers using Apache run the Linux operating system.
DNS CACHE SERVER
In computing, a name server (also spelled nameserver) consists of a program or computer server that implements a name-service protocol. It maps a human-recognizable identifier to a system-internal, often numeric, identification or addressing component. For example, on the Internet, a special case of name servers, so called Domain Name System (DNS) servers, are used to translate a hostname or a domain name (for example, 'en.wikipedia.org') to its corresponding binary identifier (the IP address 145.97.39.155), or vice versa.
VPN
VPNs are often installed by organizations to provide remote access to a secure organizational network. Generally, a VPN has a network topology more complex than a point-to-point connection. VPNs are also used to mask the IP address of individual computers within the Internet in order, for instance, to surf the World Wide Web anonymously or to access location restricted services, such as Internet television.
