Hello, I'm running a homeserver with Ubuntu 8.04 Server but I have many stability problems so I'm thinking about changing to OpenSolaris. OpenSolaris is especially interesting for me because of the fast SMB-Server and the ZFS-Filesystem. But now I have some basic questions about OpenSolaris and the transformation of the services I'm currently running on my homeserver.
Here is my current configuration: Ubuntu with XEN and some Ubuntu DomUs. Dom0: LDAP-Usermanagement, Samba (PDC with LDAP), NFS, AFP (netatalk), UPnP -Server, DAAP-Server (firefly) DomUs: Webserver, 2 Gateways, Mailserver Is it possible to do the Dom0-part with OpenSolaris? I want to keep Linux for the DomUs, so only the Dom0-part is important for me. I think Samba with an LDAP-Directory as the PDC and Solaris-SMB-Server for data transfer would be very cool. Is this possible. Are there tutorials for this use-case? And is it possible to have PPPoE-Traffic from a DomU to a network interface? I only know that PCI-Passthrough couldn't be done with solaris. But I need PPPoE for my gateway which is connected to a DSL-Modem. I hope I could get some help here becaus my Internet search on realizing this topics with OpenSolaris wasn't successfull. Kind regards, switcher I'll switch to OpenSolaris if I could realize my plans. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
