I want to set up a FreeBSD file server and want to choose the appropriate method. The filesytems must be mounted on the client, always available, and transparent to the user. NFS for *nix to *nix only NIS for better management of NFS Can OSX mount and respond to NFS/NIS? What other OSs can use this? Are user names and passwords encrypted? Netatalk for FreeBSD to Appletalk Macs OS9 and X Only What other OSs can use this? Are user names and passwords encrypted? Samba for any *nix running samba, OS X, Windows Machines Are user names and passwords encrypted? What other OSs can use this? Any thing for connecting to a Novell Server? NDS and Bindrey IPXSPX and TCP/IP Am I missing any?
