When you have security = share you don't authenticate as a user and as

I have checked, and my line is definitely security = user. However, I
still can't see my /home, even though I can see all the other shares.
What other conditions can cause this?

Anne,
I bet you have changed the default permission for your home directories
from 0755 (rwxr-xr-x) to something else.
I forgot to answer that bit -
drwxr-xr-x 48 anne users 4096 2008-01-17 18:56 anne/
Besides, if one laptop can read and write to it, the other one should also.
And it can, if I use smb4k to launch it in konqueror.
Anne
Yes,
It has been a while, good to hear from you again. From your home
permissions it appears you have bolted from mdk, unless they have picked
up the openSuSE group scheme ;-) I don't know what to tell you on the
homes issue. Most kernels have dropped smbfs support in favor of cifs.
What I have been doing linux-to-linux is using mount.cifs for samba
shares in the following fashion:
mount.cifs //host/theusername /mnt/mountpoint/ -o
username=theusername,uid=1000,password=pass
I'm sure their is a more automated way to do this, but with only 10
people in the office it isn't a problem. I haven't used smb4k, but I
have seen others that have successfully.
Without smb4k, I use konqueror and just type smb://host into the
address bar and it shows all shares including the the users home dir
that can be linked, etc... Someone smarter than I will have to add more
to the discussion.
Again, good to hear from you!
