                        Dobry den !
According to Martin Vystavil.

prosim ak by bolo mozne este dospecifikovat: akym sposobom budu pripojeni na
Internet (DIAL-IN, alebo leased line) => budu chciet skutocny INTERNET node
- - s DNS, mailserver etc..., alebo len Mailgateway, + router

Podla mojich info na to usoft predava NT

LINUX bezi aj na velmi slabom HW, ktory je cenovo velmi nenarocny, ale je
trosku narocnejsi na konfiguraciu ako WIN, alebo OS/2

Skusenost z Praxe  - pripojenie na DIAL-in  cez SLIP protokol - na opacnom
konci annex terminal server -ale moze byt lubovolny SLIP server
ako router sluzil PC 486DX2/66 MHz B MB RAM s UART seriovym portom
a ethernet kartou
operacny system OS/2 3.0 WARP
podpora TCP/IP for OS/2 2.1 z shareware WWW a gopher servrom FTP server
sucastou balika TCP/IP ( da sa dokupit NFS - server aj X-terminal balik )
na seriovy port pripojeny modem ( > 14400 )
dany pocitac fungoval router a SMTP klient ( cize bolo mozne mu dorusit
postu - ale iba na dany stroj )
Na danom pocitaci fungoval WWW  gopher FTP a LPD server, existuje NFS
a dokonca DNS resolver pre OS/2 , tie vask treba samostatne dokupit.
Pre intenzivne vyuzivanie LPD servra a rovnako ASI aj (nemam skusenosti ) NFS
servra by asi bolo vhodne mat viac RAM.
Na ethernet boli pripojene dalsie pocitace s lubovolnym peer to peer
podporujucim TCP/IP ( v konkretnom pripade winsock a nadstavby )
vsetky pocitace intenzivne prenasali data ( WWW, gopher klient , emulacie
terminalov na vzdialenych uzloch )
vid obrazok:
                                DNS, MX
                        -------------------------- Ethernet
                                terminal server
                                        |
                                        |
                                        | SLIP
                                        |
                                        |
                            OS/2 - router - WWW-FTP-Gopher server
                                (NFS server - neodskusane)
 ----------------------------------------------------------- Ethernet
     WS      WS    ..........................   WS
 
Vsetko zalezi od toho ako budu pripojeni na IP providera. AK leased line,
tak potom vyhody jednoduchsej instalacie a konfiguracie OS/2 ustupuju pred
moznostami Linuxu. Zdielanie tlaciarni by nemalo byt problemom (odskusane)
neviem  ako je to s Scannermi a dalsimi zariadeniami.
