• skim samba manual
  • start experimenting
  • mount a random Win directory to *nix
  • play around with it
  • realize how cool samba is
  • get distracted
  • go off and do other things
  • come back and start to clean up
  • realize about 1 second too late that 'rm -R foo/' is, shall we say, very different from 'umount foo'
  • realize too late just how critical that 'random' Win directory was to many people
  • restore /foo from tape -- midnight the day before
  • apologies profusely for obliterating a day's work for whole team
  • creep away towards home
