The latest versions patch the latest bugs and support the most features. Unlike Windows, you don't have to wait for the Service Pack (though I might give a Dot-Zero release a little time to cure). 4.0.x is pretty much required for complex set-ups. What are your requirements? There are entire books, depending on what you want to do. Active Directory, Primary Domain Controlller, Backup Domain Controller, DHCP, WINS, Files, Printers,.... there are a million options, and sane and no-so-sane settings. My (small) client installation has been happy at the insecure workgroup level, as that's all they need. Many other facilities have environments they are more concerned about, and stricter security settings. SMB2 can be a pita and should be disabled if possible. MS makes it a moving target (see https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba3/SMB2) --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cacw6n4smz1dkf9vaviuefhtjqep0xe2he01v7ldfcwn2s5w...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
