base configuration doesn't do that - will have to figure out something
here because this is a biggie

Inline editing of TXT/XML/HTML works fine. I suspect that most of the
other formats are just too obtuse for inline editing.

Extension is for CIFS, not for inline viewing of ODT/ODF/ODS files. Must
be configured (duh - no warnings on this) Tools => Extensions =>
Alfresco, seems likely to set it to /usr/bin/konqueror but I haven't
gotten it to work because of issues still pending because SMB is on
higher ports and haven't figured out how to use iptables to allow
communication with client apps that don't anticipate SMB on un-normal
ports

so far, all searching has worked well. Documentation suggests that all
files are indexed upon 'upload'

Got full import from LDAP working (sort of slick) so now I can delete
users (but import runs once an hour so a deleted user will be
re-imported if the user still exists in LDAP)

Only issue with LDAP is that newly created users get 'homes' in /Company
Home and not /Company Home/Users Home/ which is sort of painful. Anyone
who figures out where to change this gets my admiration.

Installed WCM (Web Content Management), nice, slick, imports zip files
(not tar/gz) but has kinky method of 'virtual' for preview that I
haven't quite worked out yet.
