I seem to have Samba working generally (for a Linux newbie). I am using SuSE 8.0 & Samba 2.2.3a and have a small network. Presently my main PC runs NT4.0 sp6a. Using LinNeighborhood I can browse the NT PC from a linux PC, and have mounted the drives OK. In LinNeighborhood I set a preference to memorise mounted shares, remount on the startup. What puzzles me is that after a period of inactivity, most often overnight, but also during the day after an hour or two. I lose these shares. I may go to copy or move a file via Konqueror from the NT PC to the SuSE PC and find I cannot see the files. I then need to go back to LinNeighborhood and remount the particular NT drives. I feel sure that this shouldn't be necessary and have been reading the How to's and troubleshooting guides, but I haven't as yet found an answer. I still have a couple of other issues with my setup which I am working through with the excellent array of documentation available, but this one has me puzzled. Any help/advice or pointers to additional ReadMe m,aterial appreciated! John This email has been pre-scanned using the latest Anti Virus software for your peace of mind.
