IBM is our partner, not our friend. Sun has its interests too, and has 5 different entities of focus, which vary.

I finally got around to looking at a bunch of patchs to configure.in, some of them from back in March. One from Carson Gaspar <carson at taltos.org> looked promissing at first glance but after many hours I just couldn't get it to work. Due to much demand, I have added optional PATH to --with-pcre, --with-zlib, and --with-tcp-wrappers. I have done extensive testin on --with-zlib, and

I have problems installing the latest release of Samba on Caldera (SCO) Openserver 5.0.6 I have downloaded the source and ran "./configure" fine.

Hello, I'm having trouble installing Samba on a SCO Open Server 5 system. I have gone over the Skunkware CD and the Caldera Website. I can find TAR'd versions of SAMBA but for some reason it won't let me start smbd or nmbd without giving me a core dump. Does anyone know either 1. why I'm getting the core dumps or 2. If there is a package install for OSv5. The reason I ask

In Linux, the simlpe solution is to use nsswitch, but it seems to hard

For those who are unaware... [mod: This whole bind affair has gone a bit out of hand. Elias from Bugtraq found "public" info indicating the problem. ISC/CERT were working on releasing the bugfix together with the fix. Now everybody is scurrying to get fixes out now that "the public" knows about this.

Earlier we had a Novell Netware Network and I decided to shift over to Linux/Samba. I am having trouble implementing certain shares. The exact problem is described below: I want ONLY 'nhs' and 'vhs' to have read only access to '/usr/iso9001/edp'
