Good point - LiLux as in "Libre Luxembourg" is not only about (GNU/)Linux, but about all Free and Open Source Software. Thus, a FreeBSD (or NetBSD, or OpenBSD) announcement is perfectly on-topic here. We won't even bite if general UNIX questions come (except maybe if it's about SCO ;-)), i.e. regarding Solaris, AIX, IRIX etc - we as a group may only be less experienced there. As for remaining on-topic: how well does FreeBSD do on SMP systems, what's the availability of drivers like for (as yet) less common platforms such as AMD64 and associated hardware? It's been ages since I've tried FreeBSD, so I'm really interested, especially since I'm eyeing a new box with lots of hard disk space... Greets & TIA, Eric

Re: [Lilux-help] news reader

by Serge Marelli

That is the typical USELESS response people get upset about. Listen, if someone asks you about something, like a GUI-based newsreader, by heavens stay on-topic or don't bother responding! It is no use, no help and counterproductive to respond something like "use a non-GUI newsreader" or "why bother with GUI when most people are happy with non-GUI". You're not helping, you're not answering the question. Why waste your time and our time with something that is not asked ?

tricky SAMBA issue

by Eric Dondelinger

Hi, I've got some trouble with a samba setup, there might not be a simple solution: network A firewalls network B fileserver1---------||----------client B | fileserver2 | client A So, there's a main network A with a large fileserver2 with decent storage. Most clients access the fileserver2, running W2K3, directly. fileserver2 is completely hidden from the outside, this will not change. We have a fileserver1, running an elderly RedHat with Samba, which until now mounted a share from fileserver2 using a "generic" user, and re-exported this via samba. fileserver1 is mapped to the outside and accessible from network B. Each client from network B has his/her own login to fileserver1. Now, thanks to new policy, there may not be a "generic" user anymore, or at least it won't get access to fileserver2. So what I'd like to do is have clients from network B be able to connect to fileserver1, and have that use that client's credentials to access fileserver2 "on the fly", i.e. mount the share from fileserver2 with that client's credentials, and re-export it to the client on network B. We're not talking Unix login, only pure samba - clients should not see anything other than their connection to smb://fileserver1/share with exactly one instance of providing login/password. Is such a thing possible, and if yes, how? If the answer is no, I guess there'll be a lot of unhappy users, myself included... Greets & TIA, Eric
