I'm trying to set up samba on Suse 6.1 to enanble file/print sharing with my Windows based PC. I have set up all the shares as necessary and set all permissions and any administrative options correctly for my set up according to their suggestions. However, My Windows machine will not find my Linux machine in Network neighbourhood, or by using find computer. I was able to set up my printer, however, and get it to print out. Any suggestions?
This could be because all of the network broadcasts that your computer is making are being caught by the dummy network device on your computer. Make sure that the SETUPDUMMYDEV variable is set to "no" (without quotes) in your /etc/rc.config.
Hope that helps, Chris
