I've got smb running on my Linux box, and my machine name shows up on the
windows computers tied to the net, but I cannot get into any of the services
offered. When I click on the Icon for my Linux Box I get a dialog box asking
for a password for a resource called

//<machinename>/IPC$

Can anyone shed some light?

my smb.conf file is (the actual machine name and group is not spelled out):

[global]
   netbios name = <machinename>
   workgroup = <mygroup>
   share modes = yes
   server string = <machinename>
   printcap name = /etc/printcap
   load printers = yes
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 50
   security = user


[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = yes
   read only = no
   create mode = 0750

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/samba
   browseable = no
   public = yes
   guest ok = yes
   writable = no
   printable = yes

[tmp]
   comment = Temporary file space
   path = /tmp
   read only = no
   public = yes

[public]
   comment = Public
   path = /home/samba
   public = yes
   writable = yes
   printable = no
   write list = @<mygroup>
