this is what I've been using the last 4-5 years.
Basically, the Samba that comes with CentOS-4 or CentOS-5 can do a
WindowsNT type domain via LDAP. You can connect Windows servers and
Clients (2000, 2003, XP ... not sure about vista) to this kind of domain
and share printers, file servers, etc.
LDAP is not a requirement.

Hi people,
I am building a cheap remote rsync backup server using a software raid

Dear List,
I want to run a rsync-ing script in cron, generating a very verbose
-vv rsync log in a log file. The log file should combine both stderr
and stdin, which is easy:
backup.sh >>/var/log/backup.log 2>&1
However, I would like to propagate only stderr to cron - in case there

restarting the workstation should also work:
net workstation stop
net workstation start
in cmd.exe in windows xp.
net use
will show you current connections.
