I've sent a couple of messages about this to both of these lists, but
I've
never gotten it working. :-( I've got details, so I'll post to both
lists,
and see if anybody can, or has, made this work. I've got a share for Office
2000, with 2 sub directories under it, one for disk one, one for disk 2.
When I try to run setup from a UNC (\\blofeld\office2000\disk1\setup), I get
an error message that has a title of
"Installation of System Software Installer LEGO".
The rest of the error said
"o the folder when used also with /T.
/C:<Cmd> -- Override Install Command defined by author
sYou must restart your
[ok]"
Which is REALLY weird in and of itself. The second error shows up when I
map a drive, and try to run setup from the mapped drive. The title bar is
the same, the error says "
LoadString() Error. Could not load string resource.
[ok]"
Anybody managed to make this work from a Samba server? The CD that I'm
using has Office2K with SR1 pre-applied. Samba is version rpm
samba-2.0.5a-1 on RedHat 6.0 based system.
Here's a section of my smb.conf
[global]

And here's the section for the office2000 share.

Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated. Sorry for this being such
a long email, it's necessary to provide enough detail. Thanks,
