This is exactly my point.
I'd be happy to put an Apple solution in, if it were a better server.
but for the needs of my employer, I believe that the Linux solution is the way
to go. However, I get outnumbered by staff saying, "we need to go OS X",
and I'm trying to ask "Why?".
We've got a Linux solution right here in front of us.
"but we can't get groups with Linux!".
So, I guess I need to explain that without groups, we still have a better
solution with Linux servers than with an OSX server.
(my personal opinion is that groups aren't even needed) but thats irrevelant.
but, if groups are more important than security, money, administration time,
etc.
Then I guess OSX it is.
Cheers,
Mike
