My understanding of the conventional wisdom is that the firewall machine
should ONLY run your firewall, and related security tools. Having samba
on that machine seems to me to highly risky. If you fire wall is
breached in any way, you have pretty much presented your intruder with
everything he wants to know about your system.
just my $.02 Cdn.

Hi everyone,
I am Daniel from Brazil, today i started as a membership of this list. I
hope learn a lot about samba with you guys...and girls. :-)
My first doubt. Actually is kind of off topic, but i will try.
I will setup HP server. This HP will run Linux with firewall, squid and
the
major component will be the SAMBA ! The HP has a 160 GB HD. I will use
samba
as PDC with more or less 20 PCs in the network. My doubt is. Which is the
best partition scheme for this ? (I know that this kind of question is a
sh***...but any tip is welcome)
My directory scheme in the Linux that:
======================
/
/bin
/etc
/home/
/
/ ..users
/srv/
/sales/
/docs
/misc...
/stock/
/docs..
/ misc...
/adm/
/managers....
/etc....
/....
=====================
My three main directories are SALES, STOCK and ADM . Will be a lot of
dates there. I put them at root, but i think is not a good idea, i think
that they can go to another partition. I am worry about the /var and /home
directories.
Ok...it's enough :-)
Thank you for your time.
Bests,
Daniel
