Hiyall,

Just visiting Samba news and saw some recent, not mentioned on Slug, 
news (or at least I couldn't find it!).

(5th November 2001) Samba faster than Windows 2000! 
<http://www.pcmag.com/article/0,2997,s%253D1474%2526a%253D16554,00.asp>

The PC Magazine <http://www.pcmag.com> has tested W2K against Linux with 
Samba.

In all their tests Linux and Samba were faster than W2K on the same 
hardware.

I have a client who has been running samba for 6 years now, it still rocks.

We worked out that it's saved them more than $90K over that time 
assuming a NT 3.51 install and one subsequent upgrade to Win 2000.
Runs on Solaris and its faast.

Open source is kool. Just like absolute zero - that's kool too. Time for 
sleep I think.


Stuart Guthrie.
