I'm looking at using the Bering-uClibc environment to drop in a relatively
quick linux box, with a harddrive as real storage (booting from a CD or
other device).  At anyrate, I'm looking at building the wuftpd (or another
FTP server) and quite possibly Samba support.  I've built kernel modules
under the uclibc build tree, with relative success.

I will work on getting a samba build going this week.  Has anyone else tried
it and failed, or can offer any pitfalls that they ran into?

thanks,

joey

Subject: Re: [leaf-user] Samba for Bering uClibc


The lack of a samba lrp has kept me from moving to uclibc as well. My
firewall serves my home network not a business so there is not a huge
worry that samba poses a security risk. I use a  small hard drive in my
firewall as a file repository for  email clients so that no matter what
machine I am
sitting at, I am using the same mail files through a shared directory.
Additionally I have set up a few scripts that stop internet access for
my children's computers after a certain time of night so they don't stay
up all night instant messaging. While configuring the scripts, I use the
hard drive to copy the backup lrps to for easy addition to my leaf CD.
