Re: rumba package?
Rumba is kind od the opposite of Samba ... sort of like smbfs.
It allows a Linux machine to mount Windows shares, print to windows
printers, etc.
It is originally written for NeXT and also compiles on Linux. Look around
in the NeXT announce newsgroups for the location of the NeXT main ftp
archive servers, and you will find it there.
It is good software to have if you have linux client machines in a
mainly Windows network. It is designed as a WIndows client not server.
