Hi,
Just joined the list. I am interested in building VistA for humanitarian
purposes so I can help local free clinics, meaning no money to fund
this effort. I'm familiar with Linux but not
much with database or Server/Client. I built 3 PC's so far with Win95,
Win98, NextStep, Linux, and Win2000, all for just fun.
(i'm an old Fortran guy, i know, i know...)
I plan to install Linux server from scratch, install Apachi,
install Cache, and Vista. Then configure Vista. Am I stupid, but bold? yes.
Don't know if these questions were answered before but
here are my very first questions:
1. Difference among VistaOffice, Hui Vista, Vista from VA ftp site,
Vista Viva, etc?
2. I have desktop PC and wifi laptop. How can I use these to make
server-client environment? Is it possible to utilize wifi somehow?
(both have 10baseT so theoretically I can hook these two via
network cable but I hate it.)
3. What would be ideal infrastructure for a small clinic with security
in mind? I think at least three clients for front desk, physician, and
nurse. And at least one server. Without installing the traditional
T1 network at the site, can wifi be used to connect all these machines?
What are the security issues?
4. Are there much differences with Suse or Red Hat "Enterprise" server
and just plain Red Hat or Fedora with all other server components
added to it? Can I use Debian or Slackware instead of RH?
That's it for now. Thanks bunch.
Jae.
