RE: Samba Network

["Mark" <lists greplinux dyndns org>]

I am stumped.  I have two PCs (W2k & win XP) on a Microsoft network with

the Linux (RH9) machine.  I have set up Samba by the book and removed 
all the firewalls in Linux.  I can access the PCs with the Linux 
machines, log in, etc.  I can see the Linux machines on the PCs, but 
cannot get logged in (username or password unknown).  I have set the 
Linux user and password to be the same as the PCs, but still no luck.

On here also, I can log into the Linux machine itself via the browser, 
but when I do, I do not see any directories or files, just a blank 
window, but at least I can log in.

Any ideas or settings I am missing? I have hosts allowed as 192.168.1., 
guests = yes.

1) Post your smb.conf
2) Have you added a samba user and password that matches the windows pc
logons?
3) What is the exact error message?
4) The above "guests = yes" is incorrect. It should be guest ok = yes
5) Take a look at my webpage for more help
