Easy Server install and Samba setup ?? HELP

[Shane Broomhall AUS]

Hi All,

I work with computers, mainly Citrix, and play when able with Linux.  My play time 
has been always not something that I have been able to incorporate into my work, 
but there may be a chance.  I have been talking to a Charity organisation that is 
planning on deploying Citrix to allow for remote users to access their Core 
Business applications.  They have very poor quality servers and problems with 
windows and Microsoft Licencing. I have suggested that they move across to 
Linux on the File servers to save money and give them a more reliable system.  
they are very interested,  I am wondering if anyone has knowledge of a set of 
instructions or guidelines on how to put Linux on a real server, configure it so that 
users can access the resources from a windows box.

In the future they are also interested in replacing their exchange server with a linux 
based system as well, so if anyone has any thoughts or hints I would be very 
appreciative of them.  This might provide me with a chance to make Linux both a 
hoby and a part of the way I make my living.

Cheers for now and Smile...
