Does your local network have DNS?
Post the output of the "testparm" command. It will tell us much about your setup and will warn of syntax errors.
Linux 9.2 installed via FTp from a Mandrake Mirror using inbuilt version of samba that came with it.
the problem i have got is this i cannot get the PC to showup on my windows network it`s configured and if i use the internal IP address i acn access all the shares as normal i have changed the Samba name a few times and as a result somehow have three names on my workgroup display Lulu1, Lulus and Linux none of these are accessable and none of them show any file shares not to mention this i still have another workgroup MDKgroup which is not accessable and i assume has no PC`s in it, my question is howdo i setup the PC to show on my workgroup and give me access to it from
\\lulu\ NOT \\10.0.0.163\ which is the only way i can currently access the machine i`m also a Linux newbie so if you want to know anything techincal you`ll have to let me know what i need todo to get it.
thanks Kris
p.s. this is very urgent as my present fileserver is`nt working and i`m trying to get this setup to replace it
