I help my old school out with their computers and i currently have a Win NT4 server with Win95 clients. I also have one Red Hat Linux 7.1 Server running Squid, DNS and NAT for the internet. I want to turn the Win NT4 server into another Linux server hopefully running a Red Hat or a Suse version. The system has to be able to cope with logins from Win 95 clients, deal with the profiles we currently use (a config.pol file in netlogon) and provide tight file security (something we currently do not have with NT4!). From my experiments with Samba I believe it can do this but is there anything important I should know. The network admin there is looking at Win2k but I want to provide him with reasons to go for linux. Also, as a side-point - is it possible to tie network cards together to provide greater bandwidth by doing load balancing or similar? Thanks in advance, Alex Brett alex.brett@brettcomputers.co.uk
