Derick,

Thanks for your reply - apologies for the delay in responding - other 
work has had to take priority!

Firstly, regarding the Expansys SCSI adapter when I try booting from the 
YDL install CD/DVD the SCSI card is recognised (apparently) but the 
drives on the end are not. I've got a feeling this might be to do with 
the firmware on the adapter, but can't be certain. Everything I've tried 
so far hasn't worked.

If I remember correctly I think one of my customers has an equivalent 
setup for one of their servers. I might be able to take the server down 
for a short time out of hours and switch the adapter to see if my 
adapter will work in their server.
If I do that, do you know if there is likely to be any problems - like 
being left with a server that I won't be able to resurrect?!

In essence what I want to setup is a fileserver and as there is no basic 
server install supplied under YDL5.x I thought it would be simpler and 
quicker to set it up under YDL4.1. That is the reason for my choice of 
YDL version - to try and get the server up and running as quickly as 
possible, even though I'm not getting very far at the minute!

Thanks again in advance.

Dene
