Hi all
Just a query from a fellow tech who's playing with Samba.
He just asked me the following question, it's something I've
never really thought of, but on the face of it could be worth
further investigation.
Any thoughts??
TIA

Was doing some research last night on high availablilty -
led me to a thought which I have seen around before but
decided it was not necessary.
What are your thoughts on using inetd to control the Samba daemon?
This (ought to) fix problems with an unstable process running as the
user and crashing. Usually a restart of Samba is required to get it
going again
