Samba's built into MAC so it'll have no problems accessing or serving up files. I'm accessing mine via XP and no problems with linux-to-MAC either (or FreeBSD for that matter since I run that at home).
You'll need SMB to access the images but the real question is CPRS since it is Windows. What type of setup are you looking for? Server (MAC): Cache for VistA back-end and/or OSIRIX. Client (MAC): ORIRIX Client (WIN): CPRS I'm assuming you're thinking about running OSIRIX from the same system as the Cache DB, that saves you a box. But what about CPRS and dealing with patient lookups, etc. Are you thinking Virtual PC for OSX? (which runs CPRS fine as well). /David.

You'd need SMB if, for example, you wanted to mount a shared drive from a Windows system, but it has nothing to do with the Broker or standard Internet protocols. I've never tried to do anything with SMB under OS X. In fact, I never bothered to ask whether was even supported. (As an aside, on my G4, I notice that I do have rpc.mountd running, a little to my surprise -- but not really. That's pretty standard.) --- Mike Lieman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 8/11/05, jae kim <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Another newbie q's: > > > > Has anybody installed openVistA unto Mac OS X > > and attempted to set it up as server with SMB > > for a Windows client with CPRS? > > Will OSIRIX work in this setting (from Windows)? > > SMB is about sharing disk directories and printers.
