SAMBA v2, from what I remember.
This might explain why most of the Linux boxes WON'T talk to the Puppy server, cos it is shared as root. I beleive their are ways to add users to Puppy, but by default, it does not use....users.
Then again, Puppy was never designed to be used as a NAS, really, I am bending it a bit to my will.
At this point in time, I probably should be looking at something like OMV etc, which DOES have users, permissions, ZFS(provided you have lots of RAM!)....
It would require a different computer though, if I was to go down the ZFS path, as the dinky wee 4GB/8GB machines I have here, won't do ZFS. They'd be OK on ext4 though, I suppose.
Also, OMV has it's own web-interface thing, so no need to try to get a VNC server running for remote desktop etc.
Some things to think about.
