Linux is a bit different but logical (maybe more so) nonetheless, but this isn't the place for that discussion. Understand that with Windows most installs place dll's in other folders (%windir%\system32 for one) and stuff data in the registry (usually multiple places) and sometimes creating and editing other supplementary files/folders as well. I think that for the most part Linux is a lot "cleaner" (very close to, if not at the same point it was before the install) after a program uninstall than Windows. Use 'linux filesystem structure' (without the quotes) in a Google search and you will find enough informational assistance. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
