Hey toaster guys and gals;
I'm rolling a SuSE Linux admin host for one of my NetApps and I was wondering if anyone who's already done this could give me real-life feedback.
I'm wanting it so I can mount up both the CIFS shares and the NFS exports all on the same box, and have the same nice UNIX toolset (scripting, find, grep, awk, PERL, etc.) and manage my CIFS data same as the NFS data. I'm thinking SuSE Linux 9.x for the admin host.
Any thoughts or feedback? Any big pluses or minuses? Do I HAVE to make it a member of the AD for it to fully manage all the data?
Thanks; JKB
