SMB shares

Greetings, Sorry for so many posts, Gone through my system with a fine comb, I have managed to setup my file shares, but must the system be joined to the domain, I ask because even if I use my root user name and password I can't access my shares from the remote PC. "Bill OH Bill when are you getting ssh?" Does it have some thing to do with the /etc/samba/smbpasswd file? -- ========================================================== Chadley Wilson Production Line Supervisor Pinnacle Micro / Pinteq PTY(LTD) chadley@pinteq.co.za +270112653193 ========================================================== Penguin Power RHCE in the making ==========================================================
