[OS:N:] Senior Center

I just wanted to post an update about my project concerning computer
classes for Senior citizens. Recoup: This Senior Activity Center has a
computer lab which is designated as a public access point here in
Seattle. As the lab stands it is filled with windows '98s and '95s.
The offices all run Windows 2000's.
The lead project manager "was" a strict Windows advocate.

My project: Get open source programs excepted and taught.
We've finally got a donated Linux server put into service running Fedora
core 3. It took me a while to get Samba up and running, but yesterday we
were able to copy files from the win 2000's.  The big question of the
day was: "Is a workgroup actually a domain?" 

After receiving the donated U2 server, our project manager has now
brought in another donated computer with Linux already installed. It's
funny but once someone had donated this server things started to roll.
The director has designated a closet especially for the server room.
My next question for the group is: Should I put this Linux computer box
in the Lab next to these other windows boxes? Or should I use it for
backup for the File server?
