Well you've not given us much to go on. "How do I do this" questions take a lot of effort to answer, because we don't know how far you've got already, and don't want to write a book unnecessarily.

One thing: as a courtesy, please don't send attachments to the list, and it would be really nice if you'd just use plain text.

You should set up your shares in /etc/samba/smb.conf.

A typical public share (requiring no password authentication) would be:-

[public]
path = /home/public
readonly = no
guestok = yes

But there are other questions to ask first, such as
have  you read the info on the samba website? www.samba.org there's a lot of help to be had there.
have you made sure samba is running?
have you tried to access your shares with smbclient?
have you made sure the LAN machines can talk to each other via tcpip (e.g. via ping)?
have you tried accessing a WIndows share on the linux box? that can actually be an easier task, which will help you build some familiarity.

Send me your smb.conf privately, and I will take a look at it.

Hi guys..

 

Sorry again

 

But how would I configure a share so that a Windows client can see it?

Hello

 

My server is on a subnet 10.10.20.0/24 subnet and a user from the subnet 192.168.20.0/24 is given access to some files on the file server. I have configured samba accordingly.  The samba server can be mapped on the user's PC.  Read and write permissions are ok. 

 

However, the user is complaining that it takes a very long time to savea  document and that the machine slows down considerably.  The OS is Windows Nt workstation 4.0 .

 

Any comments on this problem ????

 

Madhvi
