Hi list, I intend to run an old pentium 133 as a linux-based fileserver on my home network (I have to use windows for my main machine and laptop!) Im having great diffiuculty synching the data, email, etc on my laptop and desktop, so I thought I might configure samba to act as a DC and use roaming profiles to make sure that my data is always synched. My question is this: is it worth the effort? Do you have any experience of doing so? Im not talking about a huge network here, literally just 2 machines. Obviously I couldnt log onto both machines at once, and Id have to be sure to log on and off with the laptop after a trip away from base so as to upload all relevant data to the server before logging onto to the desktop.
Im not asking for actual technical help (im a linux/samba newbie, just in case that wasnt obvious ;-) ), but more your thoughts on whether this would be feasible/suitable TIA Matt -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
