Hello,
We have a SparcStation 20 that we'd like to use as an athena dialup server.
I'm including the output of the sysinfo command at the end.
Some questions:
1) Can we install athena on this machine?
2) Can you offer support for this server (meaning upgrading to new athena
releases etc)?
3) How much will that cost?
4) Is there a problem using different uids in the /etc/passwd(.local)?
That is, if my passwd entry has a media-lab uid instead of the athena one
will that cause any problems? I know afs and login.krb5 have no problem at
all.
This is the output of 'sysinfo -class General,Device'
