Sure - the Tryphon packages should work just fine for you in this case. I'd caution against using a NAS when perfectly good internal drives will do, since your machines are all on the same LAN - one more thing to go wrong, another complexity to back up, and NASes tend to have issues with streaming audio content with low seek latencies, particularly those NASes not designed for doing just that. You'll nearly always be better off with a couple of big internal disks (2TB or so) in RAID1, or if you need more capacity, 4/6 2TB disks in RAID10.

Cheers,

Buffalo Drive=NAS, yes.

We're using Ubuntu 11.04. Can this be approached the same way as you describe below?

    Okay. The Buffalo Drive being some form of NAS, I assume?

    I'd just set up the machines using the CentOS RPMs or Tryphon
    packages for Debian and have them all backed onto one central PC
    for hosting your /var/snd and MySQL DB. Should be pretty trivial
    to achieve. Then you just set up each service, generate logs for
    each and away you go.

    All 4 machines will share a database (via a Buffalo Drive).  And

        To clarify, are the 4 machines all going to share a database,
        with each station set up as a specific service? If so, are
        they going to be in the same physical location (or at least
        same physical network)?

        Hey everyone,

        Just a quick question to see if anyone knew of the quickest
        (and yet painless) way to replicate Rivendell on 4 other
        machines???  We have Rivendell on 1 machine and want to have
4 others built and used for 4 separate stations. Eventually, the 1 machine that is built will function as our
        server and the others will be LIVE play outs, etc.  I have
        seen the guides on line but thought I'd ask before I start
        to compile them via the guides.

        Thoughts?
