I just did Samba. There are a number of gotcha's with it, and things that are weird. It took me the longest time to figure out how it was getting the username. I'm still not sure I fully understand. Well, check out my website (www.forsitesolutions.com/Techstuff/samba.html). It's new and a bit rough, but you might find a clue to your riddle in there. Otherwise, I suggest telling the list what you have done until now- in a short pithy series of steps. Also you might try posting the the linux.samba newsgroup... more expertise is there... And finally, you are very patient, but I suggest sending email after only 1 day. Otherwise you will run out of patience and throw in the towel. Not that I would blame you...
thank you, I have read the files and followed step by step but alas, it doesn't work, I also read the HOWTO, when I evetualy found it and various chapters from books
I've spent the best part of 3 whole days on this, and I must admit I'm beginning to wonder why I bother.
I'm just trying to use my Linux machine in the peer to peer network I successfully use when I'm running W98
