In order to get going with Samba4 I subscribed to this list. However, I'm getting inundated with postings that are, for the most part completely, irrelevant to my needs. I know they are all the same software, but Samba4 is almost a complete rewrite with completely different goals. Its very tough to filter through 99.9% of the messages just in hopes of finding one that applies to your platform. My question is, what is the best way to ask questions about Samba4? So far, the only thing I've found is this list and the Samba4 signal to noise ratio is way to low for me. :( Thanx! Richard

RE [Samba] Is there a Samba4 list that I can use?
For asking samba4 question, the best way is subscrinbing to samba-technical list. ----------------------------------- St?phane PURNELLE stephane.purnelle@corman.be Service Informatique Corman S.A.

Otherwise I imagine once Samba4 goes stable (or maybe even Beta) there will be a significant improvement is the SNR ;) -Chad
