At the high school, I'm currently attending the computer lab
administrators use a mixture of NT and Netware servers to serve about 60
PCs running Win95 and about 20 Macs on an ethernet network connected via
a T1 to their ISP. I've been trying to persuade one of
them to install FreeBSD on a few computers as a workstation, and I think
the current IPX stuff can handle that.  However, I'd be more interested in
trying to convice them to ditch Netware (and NT) completely and let
FreeBSD with Samba handle all of the networking serving.  The only thing I
can't figure out is how to handle the authencication issues.  Perhaps a
FreeBSD guru could shed some light on this (as working without
authentication is completely out of the question.
