Microsoft Working For Samba Interoperability
JP writes "Andrew Bartlett of Samba fame has written a document describing their recent collaboration with Microsoft's Active Directory team. In brief, it would seem that the sky is falling, as Microsoft's engineers seem to be really committed to making Samba fully interoperable with AD. They have organized interoperability fests and have knowledgeable engineers answering technical questions without legal or marketing drones getting in the way. However according to Andrew the Samba AD team is currently very short on manpower, so if you have network experience, now is the time to get coding."
How could he not be running Microsoft, when he invented the greatest operating egtever - Apple Integer basic ?
It's just another idiot out there who has no understanding of the meaning of common phrases. It's like a guy in a forum recently who kept insisting "factory fresh" meant that an item was refurbished as opposed to brand new.
Personally, I could use a bit of sky falling. There is no reason it should be considered a bad thing, well not unless you are one of them conservatives.
meh. it sucks getting down modded. but don't worry, your posts will be invisible from now on.
For example, I'm guessing there's no chance I'll get modded offtopic (now that I write this I'm getting worried though) because no one's going to read a post that starts off at (Score:1)
I guess you got downmodded for not using "Preview" properly?
One has to browse at -1 to see the number of good comments that offend the groupthink here.
3 things you must not complain about on Slashdot.
1. Mac users.(Childish fanboys)
2. The US allowing far too many guns on its streets.
3. Israel killing innocents.
Any of these are a solid gold downmod.
