Hi fellow eBox users,

We have uploaded a new version of the eBox Samba module that we hope you find useful for your deployments.

We have added new features to the module. Now you can add any share you want, and not only one share per-group as we had before.

These shares can be directories which are automatically created for you by eBox under /home/samba/shares , or any given path within your filesystem -only those where sharing makes sense. And also, you will be able to control access to the share in a more fine-grained way. You can decide which groups or users have read-only, read and write or administrator access for every share.

You can install this new package from our repositories.

The eBox development team proudly presents the lastest eBox platform release. 0.11.101 is a maintenance release that ships a bunch of bugfixes to polish and increase the stability of your favourite administration tool.

We have also ported ebox-webserver to Ubuntu, a pretty simple module to manage an Apache server. With this module your users might have a public_html directory under their home or you can just create virtual domains.
