But beware of LOTS(!) of generated stuff you’ll never use.

Global login

For some unrelated reason I switched from using APF on my Debian box to using Samba again. I did not get it working right out of the box because my password was not recognized at log in. All I had to do was set the smb password:

sudo smbpasswd -a wouter

But that did not work.

Google proved that it was for an obvious reason. All I had to do was:

sudo apt-get install samba-common-bin

And add the users and passwords like you see above.

Such a simple hint, this time provided by the Debian User Forums. Somebody took a minute of his or her time to type in the answer I needed, and in the process saved me some time finding it out myself. Now All I wanted to do is type the response “Thank you!”. Just to express my feelings towards this kind gesture.

To do this I had to log in, find out I was not a user on that forum, register, crate an account, activate after going through captcha and so on, and find the post I almost forgotten about during this process. I know that there are all sorts of security considerations, but wouldn’t it be nice to have one global account for this? Now I have dozens of account on various forums and websites I never use. I just want to ‘be’ my public account, say thanks to somebody and split.

Anyways, samba is working again. Yay!

Little life saver

Finally I took some minutes to find out how to enable switching of options in a dialog box on my mac running os x Snow Leopard.
As expected it’s really easy. Go to system preferences and choose keyboard. Then at the bottom of the keyboard shortcuts tab, there is an option called Full Keyboard Access. Simply enable the ‘all controls’ option. See screenshot.

Now, when saving an unsaved file, you can use tab to select the options, like this:

I love it when a plan comes together.
