I am currently in the process of setting up a new W2K server and I have several Unix Boxes running our POS software (MICROS) that I would like to have log into the server to deposit their daily information. My Unix skills lack the ability to do this and wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
 
If I understand you right, you can use Services for Unix on your w2k. See W2k Resource Kit and MS Web for the details of how to configure it.

You can setup Samba to run between your Unix Boxes and Your Win boxes. They will act as part of the Windows Network just as other Win boxes will. You can easily map drives, backup data and transfer files. To make it much easier to setup I would recommend dl Webmin @ Hope this helps.
