Hello everyone, I'm a new member here at Samba lists. I've been a lightweight Samba user for several years, but now I am investigating replacing our Active Directory domain with a pure Samba domain. I already have a few questions, but before I start posting them I though I'd ask about searching the list archives. I might be missing something here, but I haven't found a way to do it? I found the list archives, but it would be impractical to "browse" through all the historical postings to find an answer. Surely there is a way to search that I haven't found? If so, I'd love some pointers. Then I can search for answers to my questions before I begin posting them here. I don't want to rehash old topics if it's not necessary. Thanks in advance for your help! Troy

For example, here's the URL for the search '"active directory" replacement': http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q="active+directory"+replacement+site%3Alists.samba.org%2Farchive%2Fsamba%2F&btnG=Search It won't include messages posted since the last time Google indexed the site, but otherwise it works pretty well.
