Hi All

Having had a miserable time trying to get my Windows Server to play nicely with my Linux clients in my classroom, I have decided to experiment with replacing the Windows Server with Zentyal.   It is going to be a pure Linux network with Linux Mint Petra clients.  My intention is to allow my students to have 50Gb sized shares on the server.  Would you recommend that I do this via NFS or can Samba handle this?

I am struggling to find a good tutorial on connecting a linux client to Zentyal.   Any tips on the broad steps required will be much appreciated.   

I will need to regularly re-deploy my client image during the year - any gothchas that anyone knows about in respect of doing this on a Zentyal administered network?
