I have a Red Hat machine here, for Samba and some other services. I have
also recently installed a "Qmail Toaster" machine using CentOS 5.3. I am
very happy with both.
However at another site I am looking to put in a similar system, but all on
one machine. I will be using VMware so I can separate if necessary, or can
I install Qmail Toaster on RHEL5?
Thanks in advance

I run toasters on VMware Server 2. Personally, I'd keep them separate.
Samba is usually better suited to a lan, while the toaster is on the
wan. They should be on separate subnets for security reasons. You could
use 2 nics (one facing out, the other in), but that can be risky and
troublesome.
I have a few setups I've done on a VMware Server 2 with IPCop, QMT, and
samba guests all (3) running on the same host, with the toaster on a
hostonly subnet, and the samba server bridged to green. You can bridge
the red directly to the external nic on the host without giving it an
address on the host. That way the host is only accessible from the green
network, unless you set up a VPN of course. I think it's a pretty slick
configuration.
