Hi folks,
I've just reinstalled Ubuntu 7.10 after a PC hardware failure. I'm
trying to install Samba and I'm getting the following from apt:
Err http://security.ubuntu.com gutsy-security/main smbclient
3.0.26a-1ubuntu2.1
403 Forbidden
Err http://security.ubuntu.com gutsy-security/main samba
Steve,
Sadly I have no idea what the chipset is, I would presume it is Dell's?
I have made no changes to it. How do I find out?
James.

Shen,
I work for a charity, who have a number of computers, a server and a couple
of laptops which I would love to have set up properly, but being that we do
not have any dosh, cannot afford to pay for it to be done? We are in
Croydon.

This might sound stupid, but whenever I see a high-spec machine, I
