In the section for the Drive_F share, the "valid users =" names have
no space between them. Try:
valid users = Sky, Cas
If you have a user Sky on both machines, and the Win2000 password
for Sky matches the /etc/samba/smbpasswd (check for the same UID.) and
you should be set. Your friend does have to login as Sky and give
Sky's samba password.
I'm not a Samba expert by an means. The real Gurus on the List may
find other problem entries.
I have Win3.1 and a Win98 on a home LAN. I use them to mostly to
troubleshoot my friends' Windows apps. And whenever relatives come to
visit, they can access their AOL and Juno e-mail accounts.
Try putting the spaces between the names, restart Samba (as root)
with:
service smb restart
In Win2000, when you map the share, it would be in form:
\\linuxmachinename\Drive_F
Best,
Tom
