Pls help me if you can and if you want I'm trying to connect a couple of PC (say PC1 and PC2) with W2000/Sp4 to a Suse 9.1 linux server and I must use both their printers. The big problems I find are: If I don't use the passwd, then my command: paolo#linux>smbclient -L PC1 it gives me this answer: paolo#linux>getlmhostsent: too many columns in lmhosts file (obsolete sintax) then the next row is : NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED I think I've placed all necessary stuff in smb.conf and smbpasswd. WHY? Thank you in any case. Paolo Pecci - Rome, Italy pecci@uni.net
