Using a Linux server with a Mac







Using a Linux server with a Mac

Using a Linux server with a Mac 08/27/2004 02:00 PM

Until recently, I was using a Blue & White G3/350 as my file server. When the drive died suddenly, I decided to replace it with a Linux box, since the G3 can't handle drives larger than 120G and the IDE performance is poor by today's standards. With some trial and error, I found an optimal setup for using Linux as a file server for Macs.
