Now I have ran the gui samba setup standard with fedora core 1, but i did some editting from smb.conf. Any ideas, should I just manually configure and any advice.
I am trying to share filespace with my wifes pc on a different isp, dont laugh, my wife likes cable and i need dsl for my server stability, not too mention isp offers static ips
So im looking to share accross internet from samba, any advice, im going to kick her cable in a few weeks and run a crossover cable or a router depending on amount of money left after all my bills. Thanks,
Derek
