I am also getting problem in samba installation. I have installed RHL 7.1 and installed samba as described in FAQ. When I want to access through Windows (client) Network Neighbourhood, it shows Linux Server but i could not able to access, as following error appears: \\Linux Server is not accessible The computer or sharename could not be found, make sure you typed is correctly, and try again. I just want to access the folder at Linux Server without any password. It seems that there is some other problem then Samba. Can anybody help me ......... Regards Arun
