Pogoplug, optware, samba

Finally I had a bit of extra time to play with Pogoplug. I've set up Optware ipkg on pogoplug, installed samba, configured it and it works beautifully :)
Optware comes with CUPS, so it shouldn't be too difficult to set the print server as well - though I first need aUSB2 hub to try hooking up the printer :)
Now it's time to sleep - if I get more time, I'll try to write down more details on Optware setup.

I'm jealous, I've been caught up with work and haven't been able to play with my pogoplug. I'm glad to see that you've had success with Optware. Do you have any interest in streaming/music sharing software? Once upon a time, I was going to set up mt-daapd on my NSLU2, but that was a couple of years ago ... I'm not sure what the best solution would be nowadays. Have you looked at this at all? It might make a good blog post ...
