Gerard,
Which version of Samba are you using?
I am by no means an "expert" but I I have been reading the O'Reilly Samba book. I understand that XP security is basedon Kerberos 5.
I believe you have to start with Samba V3.


All I have is a couple of Win98 boxes. No XP. You now know everything I do about Samba. :-)

I hope someone with more experence can educate both of us.
Cheers...

I am running FreeBSD 5.2.1. I have three computers networked together, Two
running WinXP Pro and one running FreeBSD. I would like the one running
BSD to be able to use the printer connected to the WinXP machine. I have
had no success in getting this to occur.

The WinXP machine in question is connected to a hub, then a router and
then to my cable modem. I do not want to make any changes to its network
so that it will fail to connect to the internet or to the other WinXP
computer. It would be a bonus if I could actually share files among all
three machines, but it is not a necessity. I do need the ability to print
though.

I have tried configuring Samba but without success. Perhaps someone could
give me some basic configuration tips, or perhaps another easier to use
and setup networking tool other than Samba.

Thanks in advance!
