Re: [Staffslug] File servers?
Heres a simple way...
(presumably for a share which will work with other linux/windows/mac boxes)
apt-get install samba
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.400_all.deb
dpkg -i webmin_1.400_all.deb
apt-get install -f
Browse to https://localhost:10000
Log in as your linux root account
Goto Servers on the left and Samba
From there you can configure Samba shares :D
Sincerely...

Does anybody know of a good, clear, concise HOW TO aimed at numpties
like me on setting up a basic file server with Debian? I'm happy
running a stand alone Linux box and don't mind a bit of tinkering but,
I have never set up a server. So, all I want is to be able to both
store and retrieve various files on my new installed Debian server
box. It is currently networked with DHCP but I expect that really
needs to be changed to a static internal IP (I'll probably use
something like 192.168.100.0) though, I don't know how to do that as
yet. Files will be stuff text documents of various formats, music
files and possibly video files at some future date.
So, any good HOW TO's out there?
