there is a debian distribution of SAMBA based on 2.0 its included in slink, and probably potato.
i reccomend you use the latest CVS build of samba, as it seems to be MUCH MUCH better then 2.0, despite it's alpha/beta status. I worked with 2.0 for hours trying to fix problems to no avail, installed 3.0 and BANG worked perfectly. you can get the latest CVS code by following the directions here: http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/ntdom_faq/page2.html i have been using samba CVS for 6+ months and have never had a problem. transferred as much as 12gigs at once and it flew. nate On Thu, 27 Jan 2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: dranki >I am going to set up a debian linux box and I want to run the samba dranki >server.
