Apologies if this has been covered already, I can't find any helpful hints after 2 hours searching.... Testparm refuses to work on my e250 box - says it can't find the file?

Hello, I am wondering if anyone could help me out with the following questions: 1. How to uninstall Samba? 2. How to install/upgrade/uninstall Samba from Mandrake 9.0 to the latest Samba version via source code (I noticed that MDK9 installed Samba to different places. And the document:"Using Samba" mentioned the file "inetd.conf" but I couldn't find it in MDK9.)

All, I have been terribly pleased with openbsd 3.2 I was using it as a mail/samba server with postifx on a pentium pro 200 with 1 gig of memory.

Hi all, I have just compiled and installed Samba 3.0rc2 on Solaris 9 8/03 using gcc 3.3. sh makepkg.sh almost crashed the Sun box, as I ran out of swap space in /tmp. I didn't realise that the binaries were going to be over 800mb. The box came back after about 5 minutes and I was able to add more swap space using mkfile and swap -a. I think a warning would be a good idea, otherwise perhaps

Hi, We're running a Debian server with system users where the mail is by default delivered by postfix and procmail, before being served by Dovecot (mail_location = mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u) or read by local MUAs, depending on users' preferences. For people using mostly remote MUAs, it might be interesting to use Dovecot's LDA. I read on http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA that this
