SambaPOS Server, Workstation & RDP Setup Guide

Hi guys, I’ve been using SamabPos since December 2014. It’s been brilliant! Thank you to everyone who helped build this system.

Unfortunately I was starting up a new business and had to rely on someone else setting up Samba for me, as I didn’t have the time to do it myself. This has resulted in a few issues with my kitchen display and backup to dropbox not working.

I decided I’d take the time to start from scratch and do it myself.

I was wondering if it was possible to use Ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server as the server database and Windows 7 as the clients. I know that Ubuntu is a lot more stable, resource friendly and secure. It is also a much more cost effective option for businesses who are start-ups like myself. Any advice or information on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
