linux based network/shared drive

Hi Josh,

If editing config files not your bag, try freenas, openfiler, ClearOS, etc.

However, I just set up Samba on CentOS 6 last night and it went pretty 
painless (much easier than BIND on CentOS 6).  There are examples on the 
Internet that you can use that will pretty much do anything you need.

If you use CentOS 6 with SELinux in permissive or strict, read your logs 
and Google so you can learn about relabeling your file system and 
changing contexts.  Again, Google is your friend :)

Regards,

George Toft
