RE: [newbie] samba configuration in 10.0
Yes, make a copy of your /etc/samba/smb.conf. The 3.0 rpm borked mine.

I understand 10.0 includes samba 3.x, while 9.2 uses samba 2.x. Are there any gotchas I should be aware of for the porting of the samba configuration files, or is it painless? I am not using any graphical configuration tool for this task. thanks, raffaele Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

After running the wizard run the command (as root ) smbpasswd -a user_name for each remote user with files on the server.
