I have a question that had been bothered me for a while.
Here is the case:
I want to set up a file server so that I can easily store documents and back up software.
I have an old HP Pentium 3 933MHz computer at home and I want it to be a server.
Consider I am a real noob in networking:
I want the "HP" computer to be enable to log every account that connect to it (Like those in the office). And do I have to install a monitor for the "HP" server? because I want the server just sit on the floor with only the CAT-5 and the power plug in.
Will I be enable to do that? If yes, how?
PS. I will be enable to use Windows 2000 or Linux since I have both OS. But can you tell me which one I should perfer to use in term of the ease of use?
