I have been trying for a year to get samba to work with Suse (first started with SuSE 9.0) and have had no success. Have one machine setup as a server with its default settings in Yast One machine is client, again with default setting in Yast. It does not work with the firewall on either machine even though I enabled tcp and udp ports 137, 138, 139. Without the firewall, I can browse the network and it shows groups, users, and profiles If I click on users, it asks for login and password. I put in the user and password for the server, it does not authenticate. All I want to do is to set up one machine as a server where both my wife and I can access a common directory from our two machines. Any suggestions on how to do this or a detailed howto for a non-networking specialist would be appreciated. Art
