I have installed SAMBA (latest version) on my solaris machine, and I have gone through all the specified steps to configure it. I am trying to view the share (just "home") from a DOS window in Windows 2000, using :> net view \\myUNIXbox and am getting :System Error 5 has occurred. Access is denied Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Please reply to me at elewis@dementia.ion.ucl.ac.uk Cheers, Emma
