XServ OD Master Hosting Files on Linux Question.

Hello all!!

Ok to start I work at a charter school with not a whole lot of money to spare. I would like to save some money on making a linux server to host my students home dir’s in.

This is what I have:

Intel Xserv running 10.6 server
-OD Master setup and working correctly with all clients bound and currently holding home dir’s pushing with AFP (can change to NFS it doesn’t matter to me)

I have another PC Based server that I can run any distro of linux on with tons of stroage.

Am I able to do this? and how?

Thanks
