I have two networked pcs. pc 1- RH8.0 which came with Samba-backend 1.0.8 and Samba 2.2.5 pc 2- XP Home I am able to access the shared folders from pc2 on pc1. However from pc2 I can not even see the ressources of pc1. In My Network Places/Entire Network/Microsoft Windows Network/"My Workgroup" I can see "pc1" but when I click on it I get an error message: \\"pc1" is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. The network path was not found. I have not been able to find any doc about samba and xp home so any help is appreciated. Thank you Dragos

I use XP home and it happily browses my workgroup, which is on two subnets. I think you mean that XP Home cannot joing a domain.
