Hey, how many dumb questions are we allowed before we're shunned ;-) I happen to be using Mandrake V7 but could easily switch distributions at this point. I'm rebuilding my firewall. The new one will also have Samba, DHCP, SSH, Apache, Poptop (VPN) and a few misc. other things. R

"Windows file sharing" part of SMB. Samba does not implement that protocol at all, AFAIK. Sequential access devices (tapes) are generally not presented by the OS in the same way as random access devices (disks). The conventional "files and folders" abstraction used by Uni
