Note: Please do not top post. I had to respond to this because the post was just wrong. When you use a live CD of any Linux Distro (or freeDOS or whatever), it does not use the computer's Hard Drive. It uses the CD drive plus the RAM. The RAM gets erased during any power down or effectively erased during any reboot. To your original question. The live CD for Ubuntu should allow you access to set up Samba. This will work for the current session only. Once you reboot the computer, these settings will be gone. Since you are running a live CD, nothing gets written to the hard drive until you install Ubuntu for real. Loyal So no TOP post but you just repeated what I said so you are not doing anything more. Why get Samba if you are not loading the bistro? Ian To unsubscribe from this list, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] & you will be removed. Yahoo!
