Hello all, I have a network of about 20 Apollos ranging from the dn300 to the dn4500 with a few dn3000s and dn3500s in between. I have all of the nodes heavily linked to our server node. What I want to do now is take one of the dn3500s and put in an ethernet board, remove the token ring board, and hook it up to the campus ethernet as a stand alone unit. The machine has 146 MB of disk space and 12MB of memory. The question I have is: How should I get this baby ready for the ethernet and the world of standalone? Should I wipe off the disk and boot from tape and install that way? Should I try and reconfigure it while it is still on the token ring network? Right now we are running 10.3.5 version of Domain/OS, should I load 10.4? Should I load only BSD? If you have made a similar transition in the (not too distant) past, please send me mail, and I will post a summary if there is interest. Thanks a million! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Austin L.
