Instructions to unsubscribe from this list at the end of the message - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello People,
I think I've successfully configured SAMBA. In the Mandrake control center, when I click SAMBA mount points, all three computers are displayed. Keith (my computer) Gordon Claire Then, if i open a terminal window and type either smbclient //claire/SharedDocs OR smbclient //gordon/SharedDocs I get the documents which are shared on the respective computers. Also from the Windows machines, typing //keith/public will display the contents of the public folder on my Linux machine! You may not beleive me but I'm very excited with this! All I have to do now is a little refinements. Firstly, where do I have to place the files on my Linux machine so that they can be accessed by the others? I've tried mounting the //keith/public thing into /mnt/public, but when I try to add anything it says "Permission Denied". Secondly, altough the server names are displayed in the mandrake control center, there seems to be no folder detected for shared files except for my computer (the public folder). In the windows PC's the shared folder is called SharedDocs, but this is not displayed in the SAMBA mount points. Once the file sharing works, I'll try and possibly get internet and printer sharing to work :) !
