Hello, I am using Win 98 to access Samba on linux 6.2. I can see Linux server name (MYSERVER) on Network Neighborhood. But everytime I clicks onto it, it will give me a popup window asking me to supply network password to Resource: \\MYSERVER\IPC$. Although I enter correct password, it keeps saying my password is incorrect. I read a book, it says this could happen to Win 95 or 98 for some Service Pack, but does not tell how to fix. I don't know how true this statement is, or it is something else that you might point out to me, please..thanks in advance. Suwat. -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
hi..
u have said that u cant browse linux directories in windows95/98.
1. u have to modified smb.conf in etc/samba :
security = share ------> that u have to modified (if dont give access to
everybody then type "user"....in this case u have logon in win sys to
linux "user with password") which u have add user in linux)
2. then in #============share definition================
[virtual name of directory] -- it is custom example : [mydirecotry] or [linux]
or [home]
comment = Linux directory
path=/home/user -------in which u have to given the path that u want to
give access to (winclient)
guest ok =yes
writable = yes ---depend upon u given right to write in u'r linux
diectory.
then u have save this file......
in shell# type - samba restart (press enter)
then u will see in windows network neibourhood.......u'r defined name
bye

(Win9X can only cope with one username at a time). Andrew Bartlett -- Andrew Bartlett abartlet@pcug.org.au
