        I run Samba here, and it's very nice. I've been digesting the 
MB.CONF
man page, and I've got so many options in there now to tweak it (like
interactive dialogue boxes on the WinXx desktops, and so on).
        There is one large flaw in it though, related to SMB that allows
someone with access to at least one share to have read/write to *ALL* shares,
which is a very bad idea. I'll post it once I dig it up again.
