I've done small migrations of this sort. Usually no more than 10 or 15 boxes at the most. I've replaced NT4 boxes with RH6.0 boxes and had them authenticate to a linux PDC running Samba. Actually the NT 4 boxes had always authenticated using the RH box. It was cheaper to run linux at these locations and use Metaframe for access to our home office Patient information app. Anything specific you want to know, you can always ask off-list. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
