New Mac/Win setup advice

Hi there.

I’m about to setup a brand new AD domain with about 60 Windows XP Pro SP2 clients.

I also have about 10 mac clients running 10.4.3.

I have a few HP based Windows 2003 SP1 servers available as well as a couple of XServes with 10.4.3 Server.

The main disk subsystem is a Xraid-box. We have about 1Tb of filebased data that should be served to the users.

I’m looking for giving the users the best native expierience on thier respective platform and in the same time making the administration as easy as possible.

Any advice on this topic or pointers in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

What server-platform should have the primary role of…

1) Directory Services (AD or OD?)
2) Fileserver (and placement of Xraid?)
3) Printserver

Kind regards and TIA,
Henrik.
