Thanks for inviting me to this new platform. Yes it’s been a while since I’ve been active in NethServer community and thanks for personally welcoming me.
I have deployed a Active Directory, uPNP, Virtual Appliance (on VirtualBox) and File Server on Windows 2012R2 Server. I had initially wanted to deploy a GroupWare environment with SOGo (complicated GroupWare system) tied in with MS Active Directory network using NethServer platform. I dropped the idea and I haven’t worked on deploying an alternative.
Whatever you like to know about me can be find here: [About Me][1]
Here is my personal site running on my home server: [LHProjects Information Network][2]
I am planning to revive [www.bombshellz.net][3] (site is currently down), a VPS/Dedicated/Web Hosting provider.
I had a firewall server running Pfsense (freebsd) that went kaput couple of months back. Once I replace my firewall server; I would like to give NethServer a try but I am not quite sure if NethServer is as feature rich as Pfsense in firewall aspect although I would like to give it a try in a VM.
This is an awesome presentation! Welcome back american/haitian man ;-), hope you like this new community look
Keep follow discussions and let us know your point of view.
I think NethServer would be of great benefit to clients and organizations looking for a MS sbs alternative solution. Especially small businesses and non profit organizations who have limited budgets for IT infrastructure.
I am very interested in open source and Linux distributions that offer sbs functions.
I have not deployed NethServer in any environments as of yet but I hope to participate in the development. This is my first time participating in a developing server distribution.
thanks to @alefattorini for the invite, I come from the Nethserver-it google group, let me introduce myself.
I’m experienced computer engineer with more than 10 years of experience in architecture, design, and implementation of service-oriented architectures and distributed systems in Java and JEE technologies.
Actually I work as Systems Architect and Senior Java Developer in a IT company with responsabilities in implementation of several large scale projects based on Alfresco ECM and Liferay Portal.
Open source and IT security enthusiast, I’m heavy metal and GNU/Linux lover.
I had a nice user-experience with Nethserver in the past, a powerful project indeed!

According to your mail I respond your questions as follows:
- who you are?
I`m a 55 years old German, who uses Linux since 1999. Nowadays I have Linux-Systems for media-entertainment (Kodi on Raspberry-Pi, TvHeadendServer ) Digital and analogue Photowork is handled by a special Ubunutu based Linux machine with Darktable and Fotoxx combined with some tools for monitor-calibration and other issues. My Netbook is running Linux-Mint. Beside my Media-Server I have a simple SME-Server for several mail-accounts, firewall and SMB services. I intend to install a DMS system called EcoDMS.
- what are you working?
I work in an office, where I have a Windows 7 computer connected to a Windows Server. There is a need for Windows because our main software “Lexware” only runs on Windows-systems. Beside this I have installed a SME-Server V8 for mail, firewall and some other issues.
what brings you to NethServer?
I have been using E-Smith-Server since version 3.0 in 2000. Since Mitel/SME version 7 the development and the contribs lost quality and lot of contribs available for the 6.01 version (which was the best from my point of view) weren`t updated anymore. At that time I heard of your fork from SME and had a look at it. Now I would like to give Nethserver a chance because of owncloud/Sogo.
· what do you expect to find here?
I expect to find a community server edition that works like the SME in the times of the 6.0/6.01 version. I would appreciate modules/contribs as TvHeadend and solutions for syncing different windows and linux based computers and smart-phones. I would like a “disk-extender” as the windows home server V1 or NAS4Free as an alternative to the software raid.
Hei @jgjimenezs where are you from? Where to start? Take a look at our howtos and features do you think are interesting? Feel free to reply to existing topics with your feelings.
