For contact management, you shouldn't need the full up work of Oracle.  Seems to
me you want to use the right tool for the job - either MySQL or PostgresSQL
would be fine for contact management, and could work on the laptop.

I want to play with some sort of contact db for MCL.  The problem I'm now
faced with, much to my chagrin, is that "we're" trying to position ourselves
as an "Oracle on Linux" shop, and all these OSS projects use MySQL as the
backend :)


>Also, what's the status of SAMBA, is anyone working that?

I'm supposed to be doing this for MCL and was going to just port my smb.conf
file for the LBS.  I haven't gotten to it yet, but it shouldn't be that
difficult.  I need a machine or 2 to test with here, which we're just about to
order.

  A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.
      If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!
