SSH seems fine to me. I run it over 100mb ethernet link. FTP is much faster than samba, but it should be. :-) It also supports such usefull things as cron, chown, chmod, sudo and rsync. Users can be localy authorized (meaning using Windows methods) or YP. You can even map YP users to windows users. It also supports NFS. Security is reasonably good, besides a decent implementaion of UNIX style ownership and permissions (seamlessly translated to Windows ACL's and back), you can block access to everything beyond the SFU base. Drives outside of the SFU tree are accessed via /dev/FS/<drive letter>. I have symlink of "C" in the SFU base pointing to /dev/FS/c, but you can just as easily delete the device or set it's permissions to 700, or if you are really paranoid 000. As for apache, I use DAV to keep my calendars, but have never seen much real use beyond it. For those that have scheduling problems, Mozilla Sunbird is an excelent cross-platform colabrative calendar system. The stand alone version eliminates several issues with calendar size and performance. Geoff. -- Geoffrey S.
