I want to have my own knoppix be able to run on several machines on home networks and share to a windows machine. I could make a static configuration for samba and make as many unique remasters as were needed, but I want to make knoppix's samba conform to the users' networks, not the other way around if I can.
1)What is the default samba user? password?
2) Anyway the user can set their own stuff in smb.conf? I need several knoppix machines to share with one windows box, so wouldn't I need unique hostnames? Would I also need unique samba users and passowrds, or can I share from several machines with just one samba user/password?
3) Can I share something in the ramdisk to a windows machine. I have an app in windows that monitors folding@home. I'd like ti to be able to monitor the status of F@H while its running in a ramdisk. This monitoring app doesn't have a problem with samba shares in ext3, but I'm not sure how versatile it is beyond that. What fs is the ramdisk anyway?
4) What's the default hostname? Can I set it up so the user can change it?
5) Is there a built-in shell variable for hostname, $host maybe?
