I'm going to be setting up a Zope server soon for a public web site. The server will also be running mySQL and possibly Apache.
What Operating System is recommended both from the point of view of ease of Zope installation
Windows NT.
and also stability
Some unix.
performance
Depends more on the hardware, I would think.
etc?
Security: openBSD.
Finally, what would be considered a minimum spec for such a server?
The minimum spec today would be a 1+GHz PC with 20 GB hd and 128MB memory, simply because these are the cheapest servers you can buy (unused) today. :-) This would however be overkill for a typical webserver.
