This is really old problem, and I did solved it once, but right now I have no access to that machine... Anyway: SuSE 10.0 need to be a client to WinXP share. Samba client is configured. XP firewall is set OK. If I shut down SuSE's firewall, the network browsing works ok. With firewall enabled, no luck at all. I have allowed ports 135..139 and 445 on the firewall. Now, I can connect to the XP machine using it's IP address, i.e. from konqi smb://192..../ lists all the shares there. But only "smb:/" to browse for computer name does not work. I googled a lot, and still all suggestions are to disable firewall??? or to use the IP of the XP machine. So, can someone remember a solution? Cheers -- -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny)
