Hi all!
I have a desktop computer with Windows XP Home and I'm not able to connect to it through my wireless network with my laptop with openSUSE 10.2 and KDE 3.5.7, I can see it but I'm not able to access it, I have shared the folders within Windows, set the firewall, but nothing... However, when I'm working with th Windows machine I can see my openSUSE machine an access it, so I can access from Windows machine to openSUSE machine but not the other way around... I also have Ubuntu installed in my laptop and from Ubuntu I can access the windows machine without problems...
Any help will be appreciated,
Are you using smbfs or cifs to connect, and have you downloaded the last kernel update. SuSE only ship with cifs, Ubuntu I am told have both. The last kernel update seems to have broken cifs (at least in my case). Try ... mount -t cifs -o username=<username> //<server name/<share> <mountpoint> <return> at the command line... Where ... username = your windows username mountpoint = directory to mount share and see what response you get... You will need to do this as root... BTW this is probably only usable as a connection test.. you will probably need to pass some other options to have something useable... - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
