I am setting up a linux system in my school, where I have designed the
following system:
172.22.2.0/24 172.22.3.0/24 172.22.4.0/24
Clients Clients Clients
Internet Win95 Win95 Win95

+----------+ +----------+ +----------+ +----------+
| Srv1 | | Srv2 | | Srv3 | | srv4 |
+----------+ +----------+ +----------+ +----------+
| | | |
+---------------+---------------+---------------+
backbone network 172.22.1.0/24
Servers 2 to 4 are in separate computer labs but I need that every student can
login from any room, and that all the students data is stored in a central
location (probably srv1). The solution lies in NIS and NFS, OK, but how will
SAMBA react to this? What is the best solution?
I alse need to share printers and cd-roms in the same way, either from a
central location or from individual servers, but I need the flexibility that
allows me to route all printing from server 2 to server 4, say in a very short
while. (In exam situations when a printer goes crazy is a case).
Anyne out there ever tried something like this before?
Thanks
Mark
