Andrew, I had the same problem for the last couple of weeks. I was so mad that I was about to give up on it. But my boss hes know his unix , linux inside and outside. try this it might help you out. 1 make sure that you have a account for the user that your going to use on you linux box. 2 at the prompt you need to type is $ smbuser < user name> <hit enter> after that $smbpasswd < password for user you added above> then it should work . try checking your passwd and the smbpasswd to see that both of them have the same id number. make sure that in your smb.conf file you have the user name thats trying to access the folder. if you need more help or dont user stand my words I could find you a link with more information hope it works bye Luis
Hi there. Sorry, this is not nice, I know. A while back I tried to join the group and didn't get the confirmation - that I can remember. I re-applied and got the "confirm and send me back" message and now I am on the list - as you all can tell. Alas, I am getting two of every post now. Errrr, I would be quite happy with one. :-) Oh, and Happy New Year to you all too! X-) Regards -- Mythology: Invented lies for future consumption. Andrew Bruno abruno@zeta.org.au
