Do you have a firewall in place? If so either shut it down or poke holes in it for ports 137 and 139
I assume you have samba-common and samba-client RPMs installed?, and samba-server if you wish Windows machines to access your files. The samba config is stored in /etc/samba/smb.conf The default file is very clearly documented, just read through it and edit accordingly. Finally I like komba2 as a way to browse Windows computers. If Samba is working komba will give you a very quick confirmation. derek On Wednesday 23 Oct 2002 1:24 am, Wayne Petherick wrote: > All, > I have checked the archives for config information on > Samba.
