swat and samba 2.04b

1999-07-13 Thread Olaf Conradi
Hi, I'm recently using Swat (a great tool!) to configure my samba settings. I noticed a start/stop/restart option in de status page of Swat, but it doesn't seem to work. I can use /etc/init.d/samba restart ofcourse, but why can't swat do it correctly? Or am I the only one having this problem? bye

Hello, I'm running Debian Unstable on my laptop and have a question about trip points in ACPI thermal zones. My laptop gets too hot when I compile a kernel, or in font generation during installation of a latex font. This causes the laptop to shutdown. On my laptop (Asus L8400K) the trip points a
