No problems Simon. I'd also suggest having a read through the first few chapters of this book: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ It's available both in paper for purchase (all proceeds go back to the Samba dev team) or online. I have it in book format, and find it one of the most useful resource books around. Instead of waffling on about theoretical setups, it gives practical examples starting off from a small home-office with a few people, right up to a multi-site, fully authenticated enterprise. It covers all aspects of a Samba setup from the technological requirements through to the political pitfalls. Included within are actual real-world smb.conf files (not just snippets or hard-to-read man files). I just can't recommend the book highly enough. If all technical books were written like this, people like me would be out of the job. :) - -Dan -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFIon12eFJDv0P9Qb8RAqwpAKCq8cg+e6FXAZKyC1kbZGzqa5CbmgCgkerF R9jPXBX9e0/87ir0E2UFzok= =KoEM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
