I suspect that the command to join the workgroup in your case would be:

unless the workgroup is named something else besides "workgroup". If it was

Well... i've used winscp, hmm, the users are totally naive to the linux thing..

Is there any alternative to this? well thanks a lot :)

Are you running Microsoft Active Directory with domain controllers on your

The newer builds of OpenSolaris have a "native CIFS" implementation which is
IMO much more advanced (and much more performant) than SAMBA / SMB is on Linux
and older Solaris. I don't know how experien
