“Made some minor chages where sudo is required. “ Not required, the HowTo clearly states that sudo su should be used for root privileges.

I have never found it necessary to change /etc/hostname or /etc/hosts and never had an incorrect home folder.
 +

I have setup several computers using this HowTo and shares have always been mounted in the correct folder at /home/DOMAIN/username/share.

I do not understand the point of the comment regarding Window 7 clients, it's obvious that Windows is more widely used but this HowTo has nothing to do with Windows and is directed at those who have seen the light and want help with a better OS.
 +
 +
Using sudo at a terminal on the client does give some errors but not all those highlighted above, maybe the HowTo was not followed correctly or maybe it does not work with Xubuntu.
 +

Synaptic is no longer installed by default in Ubuntu although I believe it is still used by some distros based on Ubuntu. There has been a bug in Synaptic which prevents it loading from the menu. There is a simple workaround which I have tested and which works, I will add it to the HowTo if it's still considered worthwhile continuing.

It seems this HowTo throws up several error messages but it does seem to work therefore what is the consensus, do I continue or shall I scrap it due to the error messages? [[User:Relayer|Relayer]] ([[User talk:Relayer|talk]]) 15:01, 22 February 2013 (MST)
