[Samba] Can see server, but can't see shares. Whazzup?
Hi, I have configure Samba 2.2.7-5.8.0 on my RH 8 box. The smb.conf file is attached below. From my WinXP box, I see the box in my network neighborhood. But, when I try to "open" / browse the server from said box (on the 192.168.0 network), I get the message: \\World2 is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found. Of course, it takes 20-30 seconds for it to figure this out. However, from the Samba server itself, I can use "smbclient '\\world2i\homes' -U matt" and, after authentication, all is cool. But, I never even get a chance to authenticate from the XP box. I've google searched. i've FAQ read, and either I skipped over it or I'm missing something. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Try to login in xp with a user account + passwd the same that in smbpasswd; #smbpasswd -a user I think you have an anonymous account in your winxp. That prob reminds me the situation in w98 when an user cancel the net passwd at the start. Regards> Hi, > > I have configure Samba 2.2.7-5.8.0 on my RH 8 box. The smb.conf file > is attached below.

did you add your username to samba with smbpasswd -a username. also do you have necessary ports open?
i reread ur message and it seems like you dont have necessary ports open, try running redhat-config-securitylevel and temporary disable the firewall. if this will help then work with ur iptables to open port 139
