If you want to see your windows network in your konqueror browser you will have to set up LISa. There is a window in the KDE Control Centre to do this, but you must start KDE Control centre as root.
It will create a file called /root/.kde/share/config/.lisarc which is your LISa configuration. Then to make LISA start on boot you must put the statement lisa -c /root/.kde/share/config/.lisarc at the end of your /etc/rc.local file. Your konqueror should then browse the windows domain OK. Even without installing LISa you can browse the windows machines in Konq by typing smb://windows_hostname_or_ip_address/ in the URL line HTH Derek On Sunday 09 December 2001 22:30, you wrote: > Now I have set up a samba server but there are still some problems. > > When I click home directory I get a network icon in the left field. > Under that is ftp archive, local network and web sites.
