Linux-Based SMB server

January 11th, 2006 by pete Leave a reply »

Roberto is looking to produce his own personal linux distribution that contains enough features that would make it appealing to a small to medium business.  I’ve been thinking about the same thing myself, and came up wth a similar feature set.  He doesn’t like SE Linux, and who can blame him, but now that Novell have open sourced AppArmor that might make building a secure server a little easier.

I was also thinking of using Nagios or something like that for remote monitoring of sites, something that could enable a nice recurring revenue by charging support on a monthly basis.  £25 per month x 50 customers  is a healthy income and a good incentive to keep development going

Interesting times :)
