I've used SAMBA for quite a long time moving small amounts of data and backing up my PC to an HP9000 and been happy with the performance and reliability. ;-) A friend has a requirement for the movement of large amounts (18GB) of data a day between an HP-UX system and a few NT workstations and we need to know whether we're pushing the technology and/or what kind of load this would put on the HP-UX box. Since the 9000 at my office has been "removed" I can't test the impact there. Thoughts or experiences appreciated. Thanks in advance. _______________________________ Rick McCahan mailto:rjmccahan@email.msn.com
