I guess experts on the LUG will give you expert advice. My non-expert answer to all your questions is a big YESSSSSSS. Buy RedHat (or SuSE or Caldera or Debian or Mandrake or ...........) from any seller (or pick it up from CD's along with recent CHIP, PC -Quest (nov 99?), IT-MAGazie). Setup SAMBA -the server which enables you to connect your server to other pcs working on linux or windows! Follow the instructions in the book - or ask expert advice on this list!
