Let's see.
I do see Freds homepage (which means apache is working correct?"
I do have smbd and nmbd running.
If I try to "find" the computer called fred I can see it and I can open it
and see the files I've shared.
my smb.conf is REALLY basic. I just want our programmers to be able to move
patches and things over to the ftp server when they become available and I'd
like them to be able to use a name instead of the IP address.
Anyway. . . Here's my smb.conf
; /etc/smb.conf
;
; Make sure and restart the server after making changes to this file, ex:
; /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb stop
; /etc/rc.d/init.c/smb start
[global
; Uncomment this if you want a guest account
; guest account = nobody
log file = /var/log/samba-log.%m
lock directory = /var/lock/samba
share mode = yes
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browesable = no
read only = no
create mode = 0750
[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp
read only = no
thanks for any help,
Scott.
