Re: postgresql and samba II (or III?)

Dear friend Dong:

   No problem with your consult, but I'm not really a
hacker, I'm almost a lammer |:-). The real hackers are
here, into the list. So, you can keep mailing your
questions, and I'm sure you'll get so much help as you
eventually need. Any way, if it is posible to help you
personally, you can count with me without problems ok?

   Cheers.
   (ahh, my nick is not "Ed", they call me "Sam" ("Sam
pistols" -they say because of my nice temperament- |:-))
