You should have no trouble running FreeBSD hosts and NT based hosts on the same network segment. I would do partitioning of the network based first on some simple geographic details like buildings or floors or wings of the building or some such. Then if work patterns or traffic dictate, the segments can be further subdivided. Depending on traffic you can get several layers of division. First all stations on one repeater hub. Second connecting hubs together over a Switch. Third connecting switch segments together with a router. Finaly connecting routers together into any kind of topology that makes sense. Hope that this helps. chris "Fadi Sodah" writes: +--------------- | Dear BSD's | | My task is to install and configure an NT/Unix | integration in one network.
