[Imc-dc-tech] free servers

[D. N. Russo]

Hi Aaron
Thank you for the offer. We have a new tech volunteer, Miles, who expressed 
interest in helping the dc radio coop overcome its problem of running out 
of hard drive space by creating a linux, raided fileserver. We want to 
create a workshop out of the event, as well, this week. We need a 
fileserver to store lots of audio files, since now we just use Windows 
Networking and a the hard drives on the machines. Not a good model, since 
the workgroups are not working right, computers are becoming inaccessible 
in the workgroup, etc... wierd stuff. I wonder if it's XP related.

So, could one of these machines be able to become such a fileserver? I 
think we could pick them up this week and start working on them.

Thanks for your help. If this an acceptable use, when can we pick it up?
