Subject: samba for newbies
Hi all,
I've just got a message form a charity I know asking me if I could setup a
file/prinetr server for them. I haven't asked yet but I assume they're all
on
windows.
So, samba on a straight forward linux is what I guess I should do, but I'm
new
to it all. I've never played with samba ...
My question is should I agree to set this up? I can simulate the whole thing
from my two computers here at home ... but
a.) will I be able to adjust to and understand the concepts?
b.) do people fell like helping me through this the fast way? Usually I'd
spend ages reading - but I can't really ask them to wait a few weeks...
c.) would I be doing them a favour saying no and putting them onto someone
else who understands it better, but may charge for setting it up?
if you say yes to a & b then please help me find a 'quick guide to samba'
all
i found on google was a bit too sparce or too deep.
thanks, Duncan
