Some discussions have come about adding another server to reduce the pressure on our existing server.
I don't generally make any of the decisions regarding our computer network but a suggestion was made regarding a program/server/technology called openfiler. Given that I am the known open source advocate around here, the question was asked, what did I know about it and did anyone in the wlug have any experience of using it.
I assumed it was a software package but its seems is a customized version of a Ret Hat derivate CentOS.

Having a Linux server on the network would definitely be a foot in the door for Linux based software within our company but it would good if the first experience within the company was positive and straightforward.
Any comments or does openfiler provide a nice gui install for setting up a network server that could also be acheived using other modern distro?
Cheers
