Hi, I've kind of got Samba working and I've got a couple of questions before I go further.
My network is 3 computers: - Windows ME with my HP DeskJet 694C printer - Windows XP on a laptop - Mandrake Linux 9.0 The two Windows machines see each other fine, sharing hard drives and the one printer. The two Windows machines can "see" the Linux box as a Windows machine with Samba running. The Windows XP machine is capable of logging and mapping a drive to a share based on username. When I connect from the XP machine I get a username/password prompt. When I attempt to connect from the WinME machine, I get a different prompt - no username field. It just says "\\servername\IPC$" and a password box. Isn't there someplace where I can set the default user or something, within Samba? If not, how do I get the WinME machine to login to the Linux box, in other words, what username is it requesting? Once I get this working, I'm assuming I'll need to setup CUPS on the Linux machine so it can print back to the Windows ME machine, correct? Thanks in advance!
