I have a WinXP machine connected to samba running on 9.1rc2+cooker and it works just fine. I had some issues at first getting Windows to connect right, but once I got the kinks out it works great. One thing I did which I'm not exactly sure will make a difference in your case is on the Windows machine import the file /usr/share/doc/samba-doc-2.2.7a/docs/Registry/WinXP_SignOrSeal.reg into the registry. Saw some references to it on the web when I was trying to get Windows to behave. Anyway, works for me. *shrug* -- Paul
