Gabriel Stein: openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 7 – Testing YaST2 and sharing

New YaST logo?

Now, we will test YaST and sharing. Another superficial test: How a user can access YaST and setup printers, keyboard and manage new packages? For example, in a company, a workstation user will need share files… and where is this option? YaST is the answer!

For example, YasT new look

. yast

Comment: I found the same YasT style on GNOME. And I like it! All options, concerning Software, Hardware, System.. as part of a list, and when you click in the left menu, YaST just adjust focus to the section. But, If I want to use a option for the last section, I just use the scroll and have fun! For search a specific module, just use the field Search and will be fine too!

Sharing Files with a Samba Server

samba

Comment: Like previous versions of Samba Server administration of YaST2, just click on the module in the section Network Services. YaST2 will ask to install samba server and samba client. After, few dialogs screens to define WORKGROUP and some share… and voilá! Is there an easier way to install Samba using only graphical screen and setup it?



I propose not to hold back until you earn enough amount of cash to buy all you need! You should get the business loans or just small business loan and feel comfortable
