OK, it's working.  I know what I had to do but I'm not sure why.

After getting the printer to work by browsing the network with the printer all I rebooted. Upon boot nothing seemed to be working and when I tried the printer app I got a cups error. So I did a "cups restart" and got the printer to work. Then I happened to try Nautilus and it was working.

Being new at this I thought cups was for printing and not a part of the file system. Anyway, I used chkconfig to turn on cups though I would have thought it was on before since I had the printer working. Anyhow, now when I boot all I have to do is manually start the smbd, nmbd and winbindd daemons and I can browse the network.

Another data point. I was able to use the printer app to browse and connect to a network printer so Samba seems to be working.

Hi all
I've got Samba running and can browse my network from my Win XP box but I can not browse the Moblin Netbook nor the Windows shares from the Moblin file browser, Nautilus.

When clicking on "Network" I see an icon for "Linux" but clicking on it returns the error "unable to mount location, connection refused by server"

When trying to find a Samba share I type smb:/// and get the error "Nautilus cannot handle smb locations"

I'm new at Linux and even after a bunch of Googling I cant seem to find the answers. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
 Bill
