This is what I figured out with the "remoteBrowseSync" in the smb.conf file in e-smith. Remember, E-Smith uses a template system. The file that you need to edit is in the /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf/ directory. The file in question, at least on my box, is 11RemoteBrowseSync. Clear out the reminder right before the entry and make sure that you put it in "quotes". Then put in the network subnet that you want samba to inform. For example, if the remote network is 192.168.2.x then you put in "remotebrowsesync = 192.168.2.255" Whatever the network is except for the last number you put in .255. That will include the whole subnet.

I have been playing with REMOTE BROWSE SYNC = <remote_IP> in smb.conf but have had no joy. -- Kind regards Rob Wellesley ------------- Winux Ltd ------------- -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Searchable archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
