Hi,
attached a rough draft for a step-by-step guide to set up a samba
server. It is based on some internal documentation that I wrote for my
staff.
Current status:
part 1 - 5 are nearly ready (in German) but needs some polishing/
clarification before disseminating and, of course, I have to do a
translation.
I look forward to seeing this - it appears to address precisely the
needs of many users. Two things stand out:
- I really like the fact that you appear to be concentrating on the
supplied graphical tools. A lot of people edit the configuration files
and get into difficulties when they could get the desired result with
the system-config utilities.
- Section 3 could be done as a series of active tests, rather than more
passive statements.
For example, if you say:
"To test that user home directories are working, as per section 2, do X"
you both reinforce the previous sections and ensure that section 3 has
useful content in it's own right.
