Hi, I have trying to get samba working so I can map a new network drive on my Windows 2000 box through to my linux box. So far I have installed and setup a really basic configuration and have started the samba server. I can successfully logon from with the linux box so at least I know the server is working. However, I still cannot see the linux box in the network neighbourhood and cannot work out why?
How can I test to see if the linux box is visible from the windows box. I have tried: net use f: \\<linuxbox>\share and this gives: "The remote computer is not available" I have the following in my smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = Workgroup server string = Linux Box interfaces = 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 security = share encrypt passwords = yes [temp] path = /tmp read only = no guest ok = yes I am using samba version 2.2.0 on SuSE 7.2 Can anyone help me work out why I cannot see the linuc box from Windows 2000?
