i have an old laptop that i use as an answering machine. i am running out
of
hd space on it. i would like too use some filespace on my fc5 server for
the
answering machines use.
i am unable to get the laptop to mount the smb share. win98 keeps telling
me
the password is wrong.
even with iptables shut down and encryption off on both machines still no
mounting. i can ftp files from one to the other, but can not mount the
shares.
security does no good unless it allows one to do what one needs doing.
any help would be appreciated.

It's pretty early where i'm at so ignore typos.
I seem to recall Samba uses only eight characters
for a password (default) Maybe your password is too long
Try setting the smb.conf file, or (in x) to be a share
only (no passwords) to see if the connection works without
the security.
If yes, then try a shorter password
Are you able to access the server from other workstations?
Try shutting down selinux for the smb service.
Be sure to set your lan in selinux as a trusted device.
Keep trying

no problem with that. very fluent in typoese.
I seem to recall Samba uses only eight characters
for a password (default) Maybe your password is too long
password length is 7 characters. was working fine upto fc2.

no sure how to do that. will look into it.
If yes, then try a shorter password
Are you able to access the server from other workstations
have no other winbased machines that have network cards. kinda hard to
find
isa network card that work.
Try shutting down selinux for the smb service.
Be sure to set your lan in selinux as a trusted device.
selinux has been disabled. should NOT be running at all.
Keep trying
