I have two PC towers that have AMD X2 dual-core, both roughly 4xxx series.
- Dec 22, 2019 Setting up Samba Server to share files across Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X systems. Samba is a opensource tool that can help you to share the files and printer across cross platforms including Linux, Windows, and Mac over a network. This tutorial guides you on how to install and configure Samba, to enable file sharing between Ubuntu and Windows.
- My mac can reach and use shared-files on my ubuntu-computer, logging in as 'guest'. The other way round does not work. The login window repeats itself endlessly. So no login possible. Not even 'anonymously', so that password isn't necessary. What is the cause of this. Does mac samba server not accept linux-clients?? I didn't succeed in solving.
HTTP is the protocol used to access regular websites, so every OS was forced to implement it! Find your IP on the source computer, e.g. On Ubuntu or Mac OS: ifconfig Create a server in a directory that contains the file you want to transfer: python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080 On the receiving computer, open a browser.
Both run Linux fairly well, as Linux just needs much memory, fast hard disks, and a decent processor.
Both can be replicated today with 16 GB memory (assuming the mohterboard holds it) for about $1000.
If you ask the forum how much the 'Apple ordered' Java update to version 29 has caused several issues, you would likley see some wisdom to managing your own server with RedHat Enterprise Linux (annual license fee of $400) with less hardware cost than an Apple, and you get to manage system components.

Consider also the hardware repair difficulty of 'Apple hardware at Apple Genius Bar' vs MicroCenter or Fry's online purchase of a standard graphics card.

If repair costs even of $1000 to Apple can be crippling (I am not judging, just offering a possible scenario), control costs by controlling all aspects.
My humble opinion.
