However, we're looking to upgrade our server and are considering a Unix server for throughput but not sure what the best way is to connect Macs to it. I believe there's a NFS for Macs but is that the best way to go or can I somehow setup AppleShare on the Unix server?
Either use
CAP http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/appletalk/atalk.html (on a page with a bunch
of Appletalk-Unix utilities )
or Netatalk http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/faq.php
Netatalk is easier to set up imo.
OSX will work natively with Samba and NFS.
