Thread: Need help setting up a server


hi all,

dad asked me set server office, , here 2 days later confused hell. have bit of experience linux environment , using terminal beyond that, i'm green come!

server supposed (minimally) able backup half dozen windows laptops in office , handle printing jobs. setup tried far having wireless router connected dsl line, , machine running server attached router's lan. router doing dns/dhcp stuff. i've gotten out of server far being able open ssh connection putty on laptops , web browser display "it works" whenever type in host name.

guides i've seen tell me server should handle dns/dhcp stuff, need network card work way? i'm thinking server should directly connected dsl line , router should act bridge giving wireless access laptops. i'm running lot of problems , difficulties setting samba , backuppc i'm wondering if overall layout of network might cause?

advice appreciated, thanks.

i recommend installing solution make little easier on yourself.

using ebox (or possibly zentyal, ebox integrated ubuntu 10.04)
