T13PM   PC/UNIX Connectivity: UNIX Server as a File and Print Host for Windows Clients 
Joseph Radin, Sun Microsystems, Inc.

Who should attend: System administrators and technical managers who wish to evaluate or set up UNIX file and print servers in an heterogeneous environment consisting of Windows and UNIX hosts. People who attend this tutorial will leave with a thorough understanding of how one can create Microsoft compatible file and printer sharing without the users ever knowing that these services emanate from a UNIX server.

Because the problems it tackles are complex, configuring a product providing file and printer sharing is often difficult. This tutorial will teach you how to adapt UNIX for effective use in an heterogeneous environment as a file and print server. Topics to be covered include:

	Server based vs. client based solution
	Comparison and benefits of various commercial and non-commercial products (client types, NT domain security component vs. none)
	Phased approach: architecture, migration planning, sizing, implementation (server consolidation and upsizing, moving from PC-based NFS to a Server-Centric solution)
	Using UNIX based server to process logins from Windows NT and Windows 95 machines
	Integration of a UNIX file and printing server into a large (multidomain multisubnet) Windows network.
	Advanced Server for UNIX based products as the NT domain controller:    Managing trust relationships, domain controller, local and network authentication    Managing user accounts, profiles, local and global groups, rights and privileges, access control list    Managing NT style auditing, error logging and viewing via event viewer    Managing NT system policy    NT server diagnostic tool by using Advanced Server for UNIX admin tool
	Dealing with problems caused by the differences between the UNIX and Windows file systems
	UNIX workstation to look "like" a Windows PC by using Citrix technologies

Using the material presented, participants will have the tools to administer the new environment, including:

	Establishing domain trust relationships
	Establishing user accounts
	Creating local and global groups
	Creating and modifying login scripts
	Establishing home directories
	Passwords and password restrictions
	Granting and revoking user and group permissions
	User and group file permission
	Security audit and error logs
	Troubleshooting
