There are plenty of tutorials for linux beginners on the web. Make your way to the terminal learn about vi or joe editors and then start by making W2K and freesco belong to the same workgroup. The key file is /etc/smb.conf. After editing you want to restart samba. This heavily depends of your distribution. While you're at the terminal do a man smb.conf. Then define a share like the examples in smb.conf, e.g. begin with the well known [public] make sure you alter the path. If you're thinking about sharing the root of your www server beware of permissions. If you really don't care about security start with: directory mode = 0777 force create mode = 0777 force directory mode = 0777 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
