Hi,

This site should get you going: Debian Administration

It, for instance, features this article: Using Samba on Debian Linux

If you have any specific issue's start a thread about it in the debian sub-forum.

Hope this helps.

I was about to move your thread to <Member Intro> where new introductions should be made.

You should learn to use descriptive titles for your threads. That way you will receive targeted responses.  

FYI: I suggest that you look at 'How to Ask Questions the Smart Way' so in the future your queries provide information that will aid us in diagnosis of the problem or query.

You do need to create a new thread(s) for that many questions.

Just a few links to aid you to gaining some understanding;

  1 Linux Documentation Project 
2 Rute Tutorial & Exposition 
3 Linux Command Guide  
4 Bash Beginners Guide 
5 Bash Reference Manual 
6 Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide 
7 Linux Newbie Admin Guide 
8 LinuxSelfHelp 
9 Utimate Linux Newbie Guide
10 Linux Home Networking
11 Virtualiation- Top 10

The above links and others can be found at 'Slackware-Links'. More than just Slackware® links!

Hi,

Glad that you're aware of the situation. Again, once the thread started to provide some interaction from members it was best to leave it in Linux-Newbie. In hopes to aid you with the problem(s) presented.

Look forward to your continued LQ interaction(s).
