The Netgear boxes can do AD authentication, but I prefer the features and performance of the QNAP devices.

We generally use a server as a file server for clients, but he thinks they can get away with something cheaper. The above is one of netgear's rackmount solutions with the 5 year warranty. There are less than 50 people in the office, but quite a few of those are graphics people on Macs. I'll also need to provide FTP access to a share for collaboration with remote workers/partners. We are breaking this company out from former parent company, so I'll also be setting up a new 2008r2 AD that I hope this NAS will play nice with. The plan is to get two of these and one will backup to the other one...then push a DR backup offsite. Anyone know why this would be a horrible idea? gratzie ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
