Apple was often advanced in their ideas and then crippled cause they wanted to own the ball, the field, make the rules, and hire the referee ;-)
I am not aware of any movement - if there is a forum or study group for the protocol, someone here or maybe a reference in samba docs might guide you - Samba didn't invent the protocol, and as far as I know doesn't contribute to it - it "just" implements the "standard" (no slight against samba intended!) You could perhaps provide the function through a web interface or other if it's used that often? Or maybe just upgrade your server link to gigabit? m/ -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
