Hi,
as I told, I'm new in the domain of Linux networks and I choose SME server because I saw often the opinion that it is a simple and a complete server.
So, I thought that in combination with Linux workstations too that should be the perfect way to make my first Linux based network.
Now, I'm a little bit surprised that the server works really fine but "connecting" the workstations on it seems not to be as simple as this.
I know now, that there is NFS/NIS, SMB, LDAP, iBays and perhaps other possibilities to just administrate the users and their storage in a central place.
But, please could somebody tell me, what are the differences between these ways and witch one (or combination) is the best one with SME and Linux clients? And why is there no preinstalled/preconfigured solution for Linux networks on SME server like it is for Win clients? Or is there such a solution and I just don't see it?
Thank you in advance for a word to this stuff or perhaps a tutorial!!
