My first question is very simple. I have a soundblaster awe 32 card. Is there a way i could make the card work through the kernal. My second question Is a little more technical. I have run red hat and slackware before but have never run freebsd. They are simular and i have gotton the feel for it already but i have been recently asked to set up a small networking scheme. This projects involves setting up 5 freebsd machines (5 new pentium 200mhz machines with 64-128 mb ram). A mailserver, www server, Dns server, NFS and a telnet machine for general use for about 30 people. I was going to setup seperate machines running differnt daemons but i would like to try to run nfs. I understand nfs but i wanted to know two things. First of all would it be sensible to install all main files (ie usr files and all user directories) on the nfs machine with multiple disk drives or one big one (12gig/23 gig scsi)then just use small disk drives (1gig) for the other machines and mount all files accross like for the mail and our intranet/internet web server. Or is it better to have medium size disk drives (4 to 8 gig) on each machine and then mount each machine through the nfs machine. Or am i thinking completely wrong and i need to go back and read an nfs book. Thanks. Any help would be appreciated.
