If the machine were used as a samba server serving approx. 50 diskless clients that run M$ Office, would the machine handle them properly? I'm just asking the capability of smbd.

I have a PIII-500 cpu on a tyan s1830 mb that seems quite stable. Only problem I've had so far is that the built in USB HW dosen't seem to work under windows 98, I havn't tried the USB drivers under linux 2.2.x yet. (That would be a suprise if Linux handled the usb hw fine and windows didn't!) = Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or . __ Do You Yahoo!?
