samba and firestarter

Now that I can't completely ignore Windows (working for a Windows shop and all) I've been trying, on and off, for a couple weeks to get samba working happily with firestarter.

I found the magic tonight.

[21:29:09] dberger@rage : ~
1136 $ sudo cat /etc/firestarter/user-pre
$MPB ip_conntrack_netbios_ns 2> /dev/null

Oh, and:

[21:33:23] dberger@rage : ~
1142 $ grep hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf 
#hosts:     db files nisplus nis dns
hosts:      files dns wins

works great, provided you also start the winbind service
