    Win2k server vs Samba

    It is sad when a $3500 hp xeon server/ 1gb ram/scsi320 raid5 running win2k server and active directory offers slower directory browsing than a 600 celeron/512mb ram/80gb ata drive running samba on centos.

    guess we gonna put centos on the hp and see what happens. glad i found webmin otherwise i would have given up earlier.

      sad to see novell go though. loved that os.....not for the config but for the reliability. have to search to find the damn server key to reboot it after 366 days uptime. no point in proceeding further they have shown their direction to be linux. soon i shut down the novell boxes forever.....thanks to webmin i hope to continue the same reliability in our new setup.

      how come you get smileys and we dont?

          Troubleshooting of redundant F750E-S0 Dell PowerEdge Server
          by omega
          Hello all,
          as a beginner electronics hobbyist, after a few years I would like to place another post on this Forum section, given that I did not succeed in finding any useful advice among the other posts.

          Over the last years, I have been using a PowerEdge Dell Server with two redundant PSUs, namely the 750W F750E-S0 ones (aka 06W2PW). Unfortunately, last summer one of them failed (perhaps owing to an overheating), and the server had for working to take into account the other one only. Of course I opened and tried to troubleshoot the failed PSU, but each cap I tested seemed to...

          Windows 2016 server L2TP/IPsec VPN - two subnets
          by Fireballcz
          Hello, please how to properly configure VPN in this environment?
          I have two subnets in two different (geographical) workplaces, connected via IPsec (thru gateway routers)
          Main subnet: 192.168.11.0/24, gateway (router IP) 192.168.11.1, Windows 2016 server (VPN, DHCP, DC etc.) 192.168.11.3
          2nd subnet : 192.168.22.0/24, gateway (router IP) 192.168.22.1 - just client computers.

          I need to allow external (home office) users connect via VPN server (192.168.11.3) to the 2nd subnet (192.168.22.0/24) to their computers (via RDP).
          I have no problems with VPN connection...

          Server Upgrade?
          by ratdude747
          I'm pushing 5 years on my current server and I'm thinking it may be time for some sort of an upgrade.

          The main issue I'm having is random ATA errors locking the system up at the most inopportune times. Probably the PATA to SATA adapter (I have a few more NOS ones on the shelf I could toss at it) but honestly I'm thinking an old "early" socket 940 board is a retro rig in 2023 and ough to be retired.

          The question for me is how much of an upgrade should I shoot for? The main issue I have to deal with is if I keep my chassis, the backplane is 16x SATA. Not SAS....
