I suggest that there should be an easier way to configure a network , perhaps a wizard. something that maybe look like M$ wizard when setting up a network. Discussion: #1: Thomas Schmidt (digitaltomm) (2010-01-12 17:47:43) Did you check the samba-server yast module? It offers an easy way to set up these services. + #2: belal mandurah (belal_mandurah) (2010-02-28 08:42:43) (reply to + #1) + Yes, i checked it. It may be easy for more expert computer people, but it is + far from easy for a novice one. In M$ thier wizard it is a 1,2,3 steps + with "view examples" on how your network look like, they can let my + grandmother understand how to setup a network. You know :). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308557
