Hi,
are you using a firewall or router , and this machines are in another
network-segment ?
just try an restart samba ( ./etc/rc.d/smb restart ) - any error-messages ?
did you configure the right domain / workgroub in /etc/smb.conf ?
Regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Of course you are right. There is a tool named SWAT for administering Samba. But I couldn't get it to work as I want it to. Maybe I'm just too silly
that's simple - just add swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/sbin/swat swat to your /etc/inetd.conf and start/restart inetd et voila, connect to http://sambaserver:901/, log in as root and have fun :-)
There is a way to run SWAT via an encrypted tunnel (https://sambaserver:901). In order to install SWAT with SSL-support have a look at http://at.samba.org/samba/docs/swat_ssl.html
*sigh* or I didn't spend enough time for it, but I'm used to "hack" smb.conf and I know exactly what I get for what I type in. But for beginners, of course SWAT may be interesting.
