I am just so damn proud of myself.

I set up my very first Samba server on a Linux machine.  I did this with no prior training and I knew nothing about what I was doing and it works.  I can save a file to the Linux machine from one Windows machine on the network and access it from a different Windows machine on my network.  It may not sound like a big deal to you guys, but I’ve been trying to do this Linux file server thing for a while now and I finally did it.  Now I just need to get the Linux box to boot up to itself so I can add actual identities for the folders.  That’s the thing about Linux I’ve found out… it takes a fucking lifetime to boot up.  I know there are fixes and shit for it out there, but I don’t use Linux as my main computer so I really don’t give that much of a shit.  Well, I should probably go to bed now, so I will mess with it later.  Hopefully, it will have booted up by then.  If it doesn’t… then I don’t have a fucking clue as to what I’m gonna do.
