My parent's are about to move from a Xenix/foxpro system (serial
terminals & all) to a Windows LAN.
They currently use SBT's Pro Series software w/ foxpro, and they expect
to use the windows version after they change systems. I would like to
have them use a linux server running SAMBA software instead of a windows
NT server.
For those who don't know, Linux is a freely available unix kernel for
PCs, and SAMBA is a freely available MS Lan-Manager compatible disk &
printer server package for unix systems.
ANYWAY, I was just wondering if anyone is using a samba server to serve
foxpro databases to their LAN. Of course if there is anyone using SBT's
software with such a setup they'll get extra credit.
If you have any info, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks.
