Hi Bob, thanks for responding ... Yes; at least if your asking about the unix side of things. Through some magic that I did a few days ago I piped the password file for linux into a password file for samba, then initialized the samba account of interest. A decription of what I did is here: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.3-Manual/custom-guide/s1-samb a-configuring.html
On the windows side of things, I'm trying to access the share as different user. I'm assuming (?) that I'll be asked for the appropriate passwords when the connection is being established. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm still under the impression I'm faced with a DNS resolution problem since I can't ping the Linux box from my W2000 console using anything OTHER than the quad IP address.
