Hi all, In order to get my network card going again.. I had to upgrade my win2000 laptop to winXP..
surprisingly enough, its faster then it was, and I am surprisingly impressed in spite of myself.. for an M$ OS.. its not that bad.. its not linux.. but its ok, ,and i have lots of USB burners and scanners and stuff so I need winblows on at least one PC.. anyway,, onto my question.. All the windows PC's on this network connect via a linux box hooked to my ADSL.. works fine.. I just enabled the winXP firewall on my pcmcia network interface.. and all PC's have just dropped of samba access to this box... I added port 139 to the open ports, but still can't access any shares on the linux box.. What ports do I need to open to allow samba or smb shares to be available on the xp box??? rgds frank
