#NetWorking Amiga,PC
Greeting,
I am looking at the possibility of Networking a few P.C. and a few Amiga
together in a network. Well actually 2 Amiga and 2 P.C.
The first idea is to set up a P.C. as a server and connect the rest of the work
station to the server.
Got any suggestions what software should I use on the P.C. side as a server.
First suggestion was Novell but Novell is too expensive.
Another friend of mine suggested LINUX the X86 chip base public domain Unix. I
don't mind giving LINUX a go. Anyone got any experience on this ?
What about on the Amiga Side. Can I use AmiTCP to connect the Amiga to the
Unix server ? I have not seen AmiTCP yet does it support File transfer
commands like rcp ?
If I am going to network the Amiga that means I have to get Ethernet net cards
for the Amiga. Is there anyone making Amiga Ethernet cards?
I am not a net working expert and I am willing to learn. I am doing this for
fun and I don't have a big budget.
Suggetions, Warning, Tips are all welcome.
Best Regards,
Sze C
