I plan to install a server in my home for backup of my wives home business files along with other server functions I might find of use. I am a network admin of mostly w2K/XP experiece, but have dabbled in linux here and there.
I plan to install this on a P3 800Mhz machine with possibly three harddrives and one cdrom.
So one system disc and the other two I was hoping to mirror for data. And of course I will need to access all data from a windows computer and manipulate it as such, so I assume I need samba.
So my question is what brand/versions do you recommend for a newb like me?
Also, once i setup the mirror, upon disc failure, how do I get my data back? is it similiar to how it is done in W2K?
Thanks for your time!
