Date: Sat, 02 Nov 1996 03:36:41 +0000 Organization: Vision Interactive Lines: 19 Message-ID: <327AC1BE.167EB0E7@itdl.telecall.co.uk> NNTP-Posting-Host: visint.demon.co.uk X-NNTP-Posting-Host: visint.demon.co.uk X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.01b1 (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I'm about to set up a Server which will be running Samba, CAP and Apache (among other things). Now I've got a 2Gb and a 4Gb disk, so how do I partition them ? It's not quite as easy as I thought, the main problem is that I am going to have a lot of users throwing large multimedia files about the place and I would prefer it if peoples home directories (and the Samba directories) weren't on the same disk as the Web pages I want to serve. Other than that, this also has to be a print server, so I'm going to need some huge amount of spool space (no idea how much, but I was expecting 200Mb might be a reasonable amount). If anyone has experience, or just any clue about how to split this all up for decent performance please let me know. Steve..
