in smb.conf: give the server a netbios name and ensure all systems in the network are using the same workgroup name.
Just for clarity, with the above configuration are other windows machines in the workgroup able to *browse* for the shares with the firewall on the server up? I've tried this as well, and with this setup the machine is indeed able to act as a samba server provided a specific share is requested. I've never gotten browsing to work with the firewall up though. -- Don -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
