My latest, book, _The Definitive Guide to Samba 3_, is now available.

new book describes Samba and its operation on multiple OSs, including
Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS X, and others. It includes coverage of Samba 3.0's
new features, such as the ability to migrate a domain from a Windows NT
domain controller and the new net utility. The book's chapters are:

Part 1. Samba Essentials
1. Understanding SMB/CIFS
2. Samba and SMB/CIFS

Part 2. Basic Samba Operations
3. Obtaining, Installing, and Running Samba
4. Global Samba Configuration
5. Configuring File Shares
6. Configuring Printer Shares
7. Managing Samba Accounts

Part 3. Advanced Samba Operations
8. Configuring a Master Browser
9. Configuring a NetBIOS Name Server
10. Configuring a Domain Controller
11. Securing Samba
12. Samba Interactions with Other Protocols

Part 4. Samba Tips and Tricks
13. Using GUI Configuration Tools
14. Using Samba Scripts
15. Migrating a Windows Domain to Samba Control
16. Samba Backups
17. Troubleshooting Samba
18. Using SMB/CIFS Clients

Subject: PERL applications with Indian scripts

     Greetings,

      Kindly include the following in the announcements.

      Kalyana Krishnan
      Professor
      IIT Madras
      Chennai India - 600 036
======================================================================
     PERL programs for use with Indian languages/scripts
     (Systems running Linux)

   Greetings from Chennai, India.

     Multilingual software applications supporting user interfaces in
     Indian languages may now be written in PERL. The required modules
     for permitting Indian language scripts to be processed by standard
     PERL are now available for those interested in working with PERL
     and localizing applications. Please visit

      http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/software/sources/perl.html

     Over the years, several persons have asked for the sources
     of the applications distributed by the acharya site.

     Systems Development Lab, where the multilingual software has been
     developed over a period of nearly 12 years, has decided to
     make all the sources available to all interested persons, through
     a new OpenSource project at sourceforge.

     http://imli.sourceforge.net/

     The syllable level coding scheme, which forms the basis for
     text representation in all the multilingual applications
     developed at the lab, has also been discussed for the benefit of
     developers. Please see

     http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/software/sources/scheme.html

     Sources for more than twenty packages, ranging from Multilingual
     editors, linguistic applications, search engines, web page
     creation, font generation, Text to Speech Synthesis, email etc.,
     will be available over the next six to eight weeks, as volunteers
     prune the sources, document them and present the same for
     further developemnt. 

     Students in Engineering colleges, looking for projects will
     benefit from the availability of the sources. The basic resources
     required for working with all the scripts in use in the country,
     including Urdu will be made available as part of this effort.

     For specific information please get in touch with 
     rkk@acharya.iitm.ac.in
