I have a background as a Macintosh consultant with some experience with well – behaved Apple Server – based workgroups.
A while ago an opportunity presented itself to me to start administering a small group of Macs within a larger Linux – based organisation. Users on those Macs are working from home directories that are hosted on a Linux server and are accessed through the NFS protocol. An LDAP – solution exists which is mirrored but not editable through a Leopard Server. Some of those users are working through a Firefox based publishing system, others use primarily Quark Express and Adobe CS3. All of them are sharing files through a file server that is also accessed via NFS.
While I am grateful for the learning experience there are times when I feel somewhat frustrated with the task at hand. I´m finding it hard to find documentation about this particular constellation and was wondering if you could point me into some directions.
Thank you so much,
Martin
