I would recommend FreeNAS as well, been using it for quite some time and have been very pleased with it. It does everything I ask and more. Nice thing about it is, similar to m0n0wall from which it is a fork, you can simply back up the configuration. In the event a re-install is necessary, there really is no worries. I have swapped drives out before out of two FreeNAS machines, installed, and restored settings in a matter of minutes. Another nice aspect is it requires hardly any disk space, so for the OS you can use basically any old hard drive, and then add in the larger file share drives. In fact this is what got me into FreeNAS, I was looking to use a bunch of old hardware to make a storage share for disk based backups.Sean Waite -----Original Message----- From: admin at lctn.org To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2007 10:27:10 -0500 (CDT) Subject: Re: [tclug-list] Homemade NAS > Have you checked: > > http://www.freenas.org/ [http://www.freenas.org/] Thanks.
