The only two things you should have to do with your /etc/samba/smb.conf is to make sure your workgroup name is setup correctly, and setup at least the one share publicly. Restart smb and you're good to go (or at least should be). SMB/NMBD emulate netbios protocol - so for linux to see/touch/feel Windows machines (or a Mac running DAVE), you're going to have to deal with Samba. EZ'ier way to deal with Samba is through Webmin and SWAT. -- Sun Dec 22 14:20:00 EST 2002 2:20pm up 11 min, 2 users, load average: 0.06, 0.11, 0.11 .o0 linux user:267497 0o. -------------------------------- | __ __ | k�hn media australia | / \ /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | .\__/ || | | | | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen k�hn | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | ;"""/ / | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU -------------------------------- Coralament*Best Gr�tens*Liebe Gr��e*Best Regards*Elkorajn Salutojn Not only is this incomprehensible, but the ink is ugly and the paper is from the wrong kind of tree. -- Professor, EECS, George Washington University I'm looking forward to working with you on this next year. -- Professor, Harvard, on a senior thesis.
