HowTos...

Dear sirs... i just bought a 7.0 P.E. and i need to setup a Lan Server based on it. How do i... 1) Setup samba. I tried the Samba howto but i hadn't had much luck... 2) Setup Netatalk. The howto tells me to compile the kernel again, but before doing so i would like to know if somebody had the same problem i had... 3) Type a backtick. I know this one is silly, but on the italian keyboard, i have no backtick. At the very least, is there in Li- nux a keyboard map w/shortcuts??? 4) Is there something like ntsysv? Thanks in advance Gabriele
