What are you faxing with? I'm trying to get Hylafax going, but it isn't working for me. I can dial out with the modem via a terminal, and all seems fine, but Hylafax just pukes. (Sorry I don't have the log quite handy...) If you're using Hylafax, I'll get more details for you though. Maybe you can help me through it.

So I would edit the smb.comf file manually. Here's the conf file off my fax, file and print server. There are win98 and win2k clients. It's setup so it chmods the files to 777 so windows can still modify them. I set up the permissions on a per IP basis so I didn't need to worry about users. Could never get that to work, I guess I'll have to look into that some more. :) How this helps. # Global parameters [global] writable = yes netbios name = JASON public = yes security = SHARE create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 [printers] path = /var/spool/samba lprm command = cancel %p-%j lpq command = lpstat -o %p comment = All Printers print command = lpr-cups -P %p -o raw %s -r # using client side printer drivers. printable = yes create mask = 0700 [user] path = /home/razor/User comment = User files allow hosts = 192.168.0.18 192.168.0.7 192.168.0.9 192.168.0.14 [recvq] comment = Fax Receive Queues browsable = yes path = /var/spool/fax/recvq public = yes writable = no Jason On Saturday 05 October 2002 18:30, you wrote: > Hey All, > > I'm trying to wrestle this SAMBA thing and while I'm making some progress I > am not wholly successful.
