I'm not sure but I have not had any troubles with setting up the
administrative share on my samba box. Just so you know it does work. Everything looks correct. Only thing I can
think of if MS makes you have an OpenLicense CD for the share because that is
the one I used. Sorry I don't know but I don't think it is SAMBA.
Try setting up the share on your widows share see ifs happening there
too.

I need your help. I've
searched the Internet and did a lot of experimenting but I cannot get Office
2000 to work with Linux 7.3 and the latest-version of Samba. I had no
problem with Office97 and other applications. I used the setup /a on a
win2000 client to decompress the files so I could run setup and install the
applications on the Samba share. The files will install onto the Samba
share okay but it also loads files on the client and adds office to the
registry. In the client control panel of "add/remove programs", it shows
that office has been installed on the client2000 (the full file size of
Offifce2000). If I uninstall Office 2000, the uninstall works fine and
also uninstalls the application on the Samba share. I don't want to have
to go to each 2000 client to load Office which would defeat the purpose of
using a Samba share.
I have exhausted all avenues and I
am under pressure to set up a Samba server to serve applications, especially
Office2000. I want to show my co-workers/leaders that Linux/Samba is the
greatest but our organization is reluctant to go to Linux. I have
already setup a pair of R.H. 7.3 with Samba servers that are clustered using
Heartbeat and RAID0 and it works great. I would appreciate any help you
can provide or maybe point me in the right direction. If I can show how
great Linux/Samba is, I want to replace our mail, database and web servers
with Linux.
Thanks,
Art Altizer
