Hi All
, thanks Kwan & Torstein for the advice , but so far the windows machine
still cannot see this machine.
I have opened ports 137 & 139 on the firewall , I've altered the
smb.conf as suggested, included the chmod and chown foe the public dir,
but still nothing.
The modified smb.conf is as follows:-
[global]
workgroup = MDKGROUP
netbios name = FW-GB7TF
server string = Samba Server %v
encrypt passwords = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
printcap name = cups
domain logons = Yes
dns proxy = No
printer admin = @adm
printing = cups
security = share
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
browseable = No
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
create mask = 0700
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
print command = lpr-cups -P %p -o raw %s -r # using client
side printer drivers.
browseable = No
[print$]
path = /var/lib/samba/printers
write list = @adm root
guest ok = Yes
The smbusers file as follows:-
# Unix_name = SMB_name1 SMB_name2 ...
root = administrator admin
nobody = guest pcguest smbguest
I'm still stumped, any more suggestions ??
TIA
Richard
