Hi,
on my debian/squeeze 2.6.30.5 x86 system
I mounted a remote CIFS share
and would like to reexport it on my system again via Samba.
Is there a way to do it on linux yet ?
FreeNAS/BSD seems to be able to do that...
Thanks in advance for any hints,
Bruno

Hi to Everyone !
I surely made a mistake trying to install 'audacity v1.3.8 beta'.
Someone told me that this new beta version was really different from
earlier releases, so I wanted to test it.

beta version was the last

I am getting unable to connect error when trying to connect to windows
2008 server. However, when I do the same thing on windows 2003
server, I get a successful connection.
Is terminal server client compatible with windows 2008 server?
If yes, what could be the problem?
