You could also set up your FreeBSD server(s) to share the same piece of disk with both Samba and netatalk. I've done it, and it works. This has the advantage of being free, which DAVE is not. Or if you're into spending money for the clients, you could buy fewer copies of PCMacLAN for the PCs (8 vs. 21); this will allow them to mount AppleShare volumes, which your FreeBSD+netatalk machine will look like. > Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 14:11:26 -0900 > From: "David" <dstark@alaska.net> > Subject: Accessing a FreeBSD server (PC based) from a Macintosh > > > I have a consultant putting together a PC based server that will be = > running FreeBSD (2.04?).
