My friend wants to make a linux server with Oracle 8i, which can be
accessed for students with windows client, for an Oracle Class. The
hardware is a dual P III 800 Mhz, with 1 giga RAM , and RAID 5 controller,
with 5 X 8 giga = 40 giga total.
Is there any idea what to install on the server, so students with windows
client can access it ?
I'm planning to install Samba, Mars NWE (there is an existing Novell Network).
Is there any problem with the ODBC then ?
Beside that, can the server boot directly from the RAID devices, or should
I use other storage with is not connected to the RAID Controller ?
Thanks.
