I don't fully understand your needs but would suggest most anything you are familiar with and can find support from others will do. Wish I could say MacOS X Snow Leopard Server has been flawless but it has not. Still its something worth evaluating. An entire Mac Mini Server with two 500G drives an unlimited user license is a budget busting $995 full MSRP. Many former FreeBSD core members now work for Apple. Many of the man pages in MacOS X still say FreeBSD. Apple has done a lot for FreeBSD. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@HiWAAY.net ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.
