The guys from X/OS have released it for 5.0 along with the other updates (on Oct. 9). Are the "enhancements"... "not important" as long as they're not "security

An inherited system has the following configuration: passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://10.10.10.10 smbpasswd guest What is the purpose of using multiple backends? The smb.conf man page simply states that each backend will be searched in turn but why would one ever use such a setup? Secondly, the man page does not mention the 'guest' backend. To me such a backend implies that an

I have inherited a Samba server and would like to migrate the installation to a new machine. We are using Samba as a PDC and my currrent worry is what users will see on their desktop (as well as other changes?) once they log on to the new server. As a test I have logged on with my laptop (running WinXP virtually) and I get a completely blank desktop (with the exception of the trash can). Will

I am making some progress on my Centos 5 notebook build. So I am looking at Firefox and Thunderbird 2.0. Should I install them? Or is Redhat correct that there is nothing improved here and wait for 3.0? (well I have not even had a chance to look at Thunderbird 2.0, that is new)? I have the install steps we covered here back on 2/2/07; but are there rpms? I did not find anything over at

Hi all, I've got a new LCD 19" monitor. It's a good device, but I always work into a shell environment, so the fonts size is too big for comfortable activity.

Apparently, they are always-on 2-wire analogue circuits with

I have Samba and Active Directory (Win 2003) integrated whereby I can login to my Ubuntu station using the credentials of an AD user. I also have a share automatically mounted based on this username (i.e. share blah is mounted when user blah logs in). I am wondering how this can work if I do not have any Kerberos tickets issued? When I log in I use the 'klist' command and it shows that
