Then u choose the text mode config tool and put a (*) on smb. the best reference is O'rilley's open book of samba, link is at www.samba.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- Jiju Thomas Mathew Linux registered user #154193 -- http://counter.li.org -------------------------------------------------------------------------- LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- to help popularise Linux in India.
