Hello to all,

I recently found this site:
http://www.serverelements.com/naslite.php

On which i downloaded NAS-lite, a freeware bootable samba server from a floppy disk. I use it to boot an old pc (in which are 4 harddisks) and share the hd-space on my network for backup purposes. You can access the server (in Windows) with telnet so you can detach the keyboard and mouse from the samba pc.

Check it out!

I know it's been awhile since you posted this, but I just read it and HOW COOL IS THIS? I've been wanting a simple SMB server to run behind a firewalll for file backups and this fits the bill.

Thanks for the post!
