If it works with SLED but not 10.3, why should one try to screw up the windoze side as well? > > I'm assuming you can connect using Konqueror to a share? The default suse way should be thru the "my network places" icon on the desktop, that's what a normal human being would assume, no? Well, that *fails* with "connection refused" error in my late installs, at least in 10.2 and 10.3. I think it worked in 10.0 > > smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/share BUT, if i open a konqueror window and type smb://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where the x's are the ip address of the windoze machine, then i get the login screen, where i have to use the login and pwd that i created only in my linucs machine thru the "smbpasswd -a ..." command as root !!!! Hey, maybe that's the diff between SLED and 10.3, a list of samba users!!! why this works, but following the clicks to the particular machine from the network icon does not is a frustration that we could live without, especially on small home networks where one or two doze machines connected to a linucs, with a laptop or two involved and the overall level of skill is not high. It took a lot of effort to find my method, first to find the direct conq command and then the numerical ip because i use dhcp in my home network and the address can change, so there is no easy way to put in a "hosts" file somewhere, at least not for my limited level. It would be much easier for me if my windoze access from my linucs were as uncomplicated as access from the three physical windoze machines in my small network or even the two virtual doze machines i often run thru vmware. it really is not a security issue because the doze machines can see what i open up in linucs, but linucs has to jump thru extra hoops to see the open windoze partitions, devices and directories. just a bit of sloppiness from a totally free os i think, but we can live with that if / when we find the workaround.. > > > I used yast>windows domain management join the domain small home networks can run without domains or pdc's > Running AD > I can connect to shares, that is correct. and doze machines can always find the allowed shares from all machines. but for linucs to find the doze shares winbind is needed plus the creation of users thru smbpasswd -a, and for that one would probably need to add a dummy admin/ntadmin user as a linucs user,that's how smbpasswd [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please correct me if i am wrong,but this is the only way i know to see windoze partitions these days, is there an easier way? > That install was on a test hard drive.
