I have a i686 (Intel Celeron 400mhz) based redhat server under my stairs set up as a Samba fileserver, Apache webserver and MySQL DB Server.
since Samba was designed so linux machines (and now macs) could exist on windows networks, I set up the redhat box to use samba. Now I've ditched the PC completely (wahey!), but I'm still using samba for filesharing with my mac.
Obviously this isn't an ideal situation. Whats the best way to 'do' filesharing between the two? I don't know masses about Linux, but I'm keen to find out the best way to network the two. As great as Samba is, i'm thinking that having my mac and the server set up to 'behave' well on a windows network is probably fairly crude.
I'm guessing that AFP is the way to do it but I know nothing about it, any pointers?
