For one Windows XP is in workgroup mode or domain. In case its domain mode, the domain controller has to register your file server before you can serve to a domain. Second - Did you test this setup on same machine using smbmount etc. Third - You should reproduce the relevent log files from Samba. This will give some idea one what is *really* happening. There have been huge discussions on samba in this list and many others. One can go through them for similar issues faced by other users In case it still does'nt work, you can always get back :-) > thanks > > Subodh regards Supreet _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
