I am sending some zipped files to a server, using IBM FTP CS V1R4(exec pgm=ftp). Is it possible to FTP a file in PDF format or some other more printable format than text?
A- Yes it is possible to zip a pdf file. B- IBM FTP doesn’t care what the file format is, it will transfer .txt, .asc, .zip, .exe, almost any file. C- It will even hadle .pdf files. The trick is in creation of the ‘PDF’. On a PC you set a PDFwriter as a printer [...]

Samba Multiple Domain Controller
If by domain controller you mean a shared file server, then yes. Linux allows multiple ACL’s for SAMBA access by directory groups. If you mean an authentication server like Windows 2k/2k3, then no. NIS can be configured for separate groups and separate file shares. Good luck.

what is the best STORAGE solution for ORACLE db – SAN or NAS ?
It depends upon the NAS solution and how you handle failover. Oracle themselves run some large databases on NetApps. I wouldn’t necessarily head to the local computer store and get cheap switches, cheap NAS, and cheap server and expect it to work reliably.

Linux Policy
Well to me a policy is not dependant on an application/OS. Policies are instructions indicating management?s intent about the operations of the organization. They are high level statements that provide guidance to workers who need to make basic development decisions.
