Hello,
I'm having trouble with the samba doc in NHF's here does anyone know where I can get a good samba "walkthrough"?

Thanks :)

Besides www.samba.org (http://www.samba.org) and the massive amount of documentation they have, you could try www.informit.com (http://www.informit.com) as they have a free online book available on Samba.

The Samba NHF is more than a little dated (no mention of xinetd, for example), and Redhat-centric as well. If you're using a relatively new distro it probably won't give you what you need.

Here are a few Samba resources that I've bookmarked, I hope they help:

BTW- "mdwatts the Nth", could you send me your email address again? I lost it in a mad purging/reconfiguration of my systems a couple of weeks ago.

Will do David.

Hint... We both have the same provider and I haven't changed my email address to LNG.

I sent you a email.
