I'd use Debian and ZFS for your NAS personally. And then you can just access the samba shares remotely via an SSH tunnel. Works out for me, anyhow. It's just terribly slow because I'm using two 40GB IDE drives in RAID1 on a 1.4GHz celeron with 1GB of RAM, and the server is currently running over a wireless bridge because I'm too lazy to run cables. But eventually I'm planning on building something fancy with SAS drives, striped across multiple raidz2 vdevs that will cost me quite a lot of money.

But yeah, it's pretty easy to access samba shares over SSH tunnel with Putty (well, I only did it on XP SP3). You have to add a loopback device, set the IP to 10.0.0.1, and the gateway to your actual gateway. Then in Putty you have to set up a tunnel that maps 10.0.0.1 to 127.0.0.1 on the remote server on port 139, if I recall correctly. May have had to restart and disable file sharing on the client computer, because 10.0.0.1 ends up being a loopback address of the client or something. It definitely worked though, just slowly.

Quote from flymike91 :The problem is those men were born in Britain. Unless their parents schemed for their children to kill people than what happened is simply a symptom of immigration from undeveloped countries.

Well, I mean, that is kind of a fallacy, suggesting that there are only two possible causes for these two men to hack some poor guy up with sharp objects. Anyway, not sure how two men shouting Islamic slogans while chopping a man up is "simply a symptom of immigration from undeveloped countries," considering there are plenty of countries with many Muslims which are hardly undeveloped countries. And I believe the article states the individuals in question are believed to have Nigerian ties, and personally Nigeria isn't what I would consider an undeveloped country.

Quote from flymike91 :There will always be that percentage of radicals, and that sect will always want to murder you.

What percentage of radicals is "that"? And what sect do you speak of?

Quote from flymike91 :The more you bring in and the more children they create, the more are in that percentage who are anti-western.

Who is anti-western? All immigrants? Radical immigrants? Muslim immigrants? Radical Muslim immigrants? Immigrants from "undeveloped countries"? Immigrants from "undeveloped countries" who are radical?

Quote from flymike91 :That doesn't count youth who are indoctrinated from moderate Muslim families into believing in jihad in certain mosques.

Which ones?

Quote from flymike91 :The only option is a complete reversal away from forced multiculturalism. It failed, and it is forced; we are forced to pay for and accomodate them, they are forced to live here because given a choice no one chooses to live in Pakistan over London. No one.

How are they forced to live "here"? And who is "they" anyway? Pakistanis? Why do you mention Pakistanis?

Quote from flymike91 :Not a single person here can describe how they personally have benefited economically from the immigration programs that are in place.

What's that have to do with acts of terrorism and/or religious fundamentalism?

Quote from flymike91 :Is it worth witnessing decapitations or gang rapes or acid attacks where in Western Europe those things were virtually nonexistent? Wouldn't you prefer to go back to those days?

So, are you not concerned about gang rapes and acid attacks in general, but only when Europeans are the victims? Is it okay that such crimes occur, we just shouldn't have to witness it as Europeans et. al. in the Western World?

Quote from flymike91 :I challenge anyone to state what tangible benefit is gained from spending billions of tax dollars to import Muslim immigrants. The downsides are very in-your-face so maybe the benefit is hidden somewhere I can't see.

Not sure what monetary gains or lack thereof from immigration has to do with acts of terrorism. Personally, I do not think it should be easy to immigrate to the United States. I don't care about the pigment of their skin, I don't care about the country they're from, I don't care about their religion. In my opinion, the only ways people should be allowed to immigrate here are as follows:
  • Escaping unjust persecution or genocide
  • Have a resume showing they are employable/have usable skills
  • Are recently college/university educated
  • Could be considered dependent by our standards, of course, of anyone who meets one or more of the above requirements
My opinion on immigration, however, is not relevant to this thread. Just felt like sharing it just in case I am accused of things that have no relevance to the arguments at hand. I'm sure people will not be surprised to see a one-third-page-long multi-quoted post by me.

Quote from KiRmelius :Used one. Currently learning all the functions, as this is my first DSLR, but it appears to be pretty damn awesome.

Another Pentax user, yay! I am a cheap(er?) bastard, so this is what I just bought:


It will be my first DSLR, but not my first SLR. It will be a nice compliment to my film SLR, the Pentax PZ-10. I only have two lenses though, a f/4.5 80-200mm and a f/2 50mm. Which of course would end up being 128-320mm and 80mm respectively when used on the dslr if I am not mistaken.

Quote from BlueFlame :Independent? You may aswell let your woman sleep with other guys then.

What do you mean "let your woman sleep with other guys?" It's not like you own a woman. Or maybe you do, but where I live that's not legal. Though I do think it would be cool to have a human pet. Like, if you treat them humanely why does it matter if you own a person? So long as they are willing to be your pet/[sex] slave, though maybe it would be weird to have sex with your pet human. Also, I never knew independent meant polyamorous. That is kind of an odd outlook.

Quote from BlueFlame :Women who value relationship actually don't want to be independent, if they did then they would only use you for sex and then get out of there.

How do you know? What does it mean for a woman to value a relationship?

Quote from BlueFlame :Women NEED a man to defend their honour, protect them and hold them etc.

Why?

Quote from BlueFlame :An independent women is one that gets her own way constantly. Personally, I evaluate all women based on how motherly they are.

Generally you get your own way when you're not dependent on someone else to give you what you want.

Quote from BlueFlame :In a natural sense, women are the ones to go out and hunt and the men are there to protect her from other males and protect them in general.

They are? What is a natural sense?

Quote from BlueFlame :If ANYONE values themselves as an independent individual in a relationship then it's not going to work is it? Because they will always do whats best for themselves first.

Don't most people do what is best for themselves first? Some people may have other promises or commitments that they do not want to break, but ultimately they are doing so for themselves. Like giving to charity. Ultimately it is making the person donating the item/time/money feel better about themselves.

Quote from BlueFlame :And don't say everyone is different because we are all animals are we not?

Then why don't you go rape an otter.

Quote from BlueFlame :And you might like to think your actions are based on your choice/preference but it's actually genetically programmed into your system what kind of girls you like and what kind of guys, girls like. If you're a nice guy, she'll drain you of everything, emotionally and financially THAT, is a FACT.

I think you do not understand what a fact is. There are many reasons why people make the choices they do. It can be environmental, genetic, or even chemical (like, obviously you make different choices if you are high on PCP for example).

Quote from BlueFlame :That's why, you evaluate a girl before you get with her

How does one evaluate a girl? Do I have to evaluate a guy as well, or just girls?

Quote from BlueFlame :don't waste time getting with someone that's gonna **** your shit up. Last thing you would ever want is to have a contraceptive accident and end up with kids to someone who you knew when you started dating her, that it would never work.

I have no clue what you even mean by that.

Quote from BlueFlame :We mate for life for a reason

Okay, tell me the reason then.

Don't use WD-40, it'll just attract a bunch of dust and dirt into the hinge. Use white lithium grease, it is a more permanent lubrication solution.

I have no clue why you are saying this. You must not have read my post very closely. I suggest you read it again, less emotionally and more analytically.
