i guess the real question here is what is your interest? are you more
interested in having the login functionality when the network link is
down or are you more interested in toying with the notion of having
samba run on a mini box?
Of course, being able to login at all times is one of the most important
factors.
Well, there are many factors; in the end I would like it to be a cheap
and reliable domain controller for small offices:
- cost - this mini router (it even has wireless) + USB stick cost less
than a PC
- it's small and compact
- stability - there is no fan, no hard disk, no moving parts that can break
- ease of (remote) management (when it's set up properly) - in case of
any trouble, someone just turns the device off and on, it'll be up again
in a matter of seconds
- it's fun to do something new :)
