Hi all, I have a blue and white G3 server running Appleshare IP and I am thinking of converting it to Linux. I want to understand a few things before undertaking this. This is a production environment and I can't afford a long down time for the conversion. It was serving Mac OS 9 clients and earlier. Those machine have been upgraded to Mac OS X. A few strange things have been going on between Appleshare IP and OS X. Apple says there are issues between the 2 that can't be fixed. I have a fair amount of experience with Red Hat on intel hardware and some experience with Yellow Dog on PowerPC. I was never able to get an answer from Yellowdog on how I could make things work the way I needed them to, so, its Debian, or not converting this server to Linux. The server has dual ultra 3 scsi drives mirrored to each other with soft raid (Raid 1). It also has 2 firewire drives which I would like to mirror in raid 1. How do I set up Raid in software? It is very easy to do in Red Hat. Can I easily do it in PPC Debian? Will my firewire drives work and if so can they do Raid 1 as well? I posted this question last summer in the Linux PPC newsgroup and never got an answer. That was before I knew about this list which is far superior to what goes on in the usenet forum. One other question regarding Netatalk. I have had issues with version 1.5 on Intel hardware and OS X but have had no issues with 1.4.x+asun (Adrian Sun's version). Are other folks experiencing the same thing. Will I have issues with Woody in trying to go back to 1.4? Thanks. Dave
