Hi, I am running Suse 7.2. I can see my two windows computers on my Suse box using smbclient and I can also mount them. I cannot see my linux box on my windows computers though. I think this is because I do not have smbd or nmbd running. I tried though the package manager in Yast2 to install them but I cannot find where threy are on the cd. Can someone help? Thanks Rick

Right.

I think you have already installed as they are needed by smbclient (AFAIK). If you want to start the samba server at boot time you can use YaST. But to have samba working as a server you need to configure it properly. I advise you swat, which is the samba web administration tool. You have to connect with any browser to your localhost:901 (your pc, at port 901). If you are not able to do that, then you might have to uncomment the swat line in inetd.conf Greetings, Tazio
Thanks Rick
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If ya enter YAST and use the install packages option the packages should be in n1 and n2 directories. One is the client and one is the SaMBa server daemon. I'd suggest checking for updates at SuSE's site first however, as it's frequently updated and patched.

Go to Package Management -> Change/Create Configuration -> N and select the samba rpm. That will install smbd and nmbd.
