I currently have a DEC5000 running Ultrix 4.4 acting as server for a network of
DEC5000 clients running Ultrix 4.2, but it looks like the server is soon to be
replaced by an Alpha box running Digital Unix.
Does anyone know of any problems that I am likely to come up against when trying
to replace the server box. (I should say that it is a fairly basic configuration
that is set up at present.) I am particularly worried about NIS being provided
by a Digital Unix server for Ultrix clients - my worries stem from a position of
ignorance I guess. Has anyone attempted this type of operation and experienced
some problems that I am likely to encounter? I would appreciate any guidance.
Thanks in advance,
Graeme
