I am currently researching the possibility of slowly moving an existing Novell network [with all Windows clients except mine :)] to something Linux based. I have about 900 clients that would be slowly migrated if this whole thing is feasible. The version of NetWare we are using now is no longer "officially supported" from Novell, so it is becoming more and more difficult to successfully make newer hardware work with the old software.
Can Samba handle this kind of client load? It would be mainly for basic file/sharing and print spooling... The next question would be the user administration setup. I know in a perfect world, LDAP would probably be best. After some preliminary research, LDAP kind of makes my head spin... But Rome wasn't built in a day either... I started googling some possibilities, but haven't come up with a whole lot to point me in a direction. Is anyone using something similar, that can point me in a few specific directions? Thanks for the help. -- :wq! Matthew Daubenspeck http://www.oddprocess.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
