Not all the time and not all problems at all times. My main question should have been How do I keep an xp box from winning any elections or taking any responsibilities for cups, samba, and any other place I've missed. I thought I knew what I was doing, but can't put my finger on it. Right now the laptop is on and my smb4k is saying, "Searching network..." instead of hooking up with HOME WORKGROUP and showing the shares. "service smb restart" has no effect and smb.conf is not corrupted. Both smb and nmb services are "ok" I want to know when my box is on, it rules.
