Hi,
I have a network in my room with three computers right now, two connected to a Lynksys 
router, that router is connected to a wider network, then to the internet.
The three computers i have in my room are:
laptop running Windows Server 2003, connected to a wireless router
desktop running Windows Server 2003, connected to the router in my room
desktop running Mandrake 9.2 connected to the router in my room
i'm trying to get my mandrake 9.2 to run a samba server that will allow my two windows 
2003 computers to access shares on it.  i do not have a domain controller, just a 
small home network with a few routers.  i am having alot of trouble getting the samba 
server to work correctly.  First, when i use LinNeighborhood, i can see all my other 
windows computers on my network.  When i open Network Places on my windows 2003 
computers, i cannot see my mandrake machine shares.  however, if i go to Entire 
Network/Microsoft Windows Network i see my workgroup name (MSHOME) but i also see an 
additional workgroup named MDKGROUP. When i open MDKGROUP it says "unable to open 
mdkgroup, you might not have permission blah blah" but earlier, i COULD open it, and 
when i did i saw a Samba Server vsomething.something(LOCALHOST).  and when i opened 
that, i say the folder on the mandrake box that i was sharing, but when i tried to 
open it, it gave me an error saying i didnt have permission. i'm very confused
 and cant seem to even browse my mandrake shares.  im also confused as to why there is 
a MDKGROUP workgroup, when i specified "workgroup = MSHOME" in my smb.conf.  can 
someone PLEASE help me? thanks in advance
