[Samba] Thank-you to Samba developers
Here's a short quote from a work-related email I sent earlier today, announcing AD authentication from a linux VM. It expresses my awe at the folks who write and maintain Samba, and it's long overdue from me: It’s been 3 or 4 years since I configured Samba; it’s always a challenge for me, mainly due to my poor understanding of MSoft networking. Then when it works, I offer a silent prayer for those crazy Australians who originated it. The pain they must have endured in getting it to work boggles my mind. In that respect it may be the most impressive open-source project out there, and they haven’t slowed-down in the least. You folks deserve every accolade..Nick Geo -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
