Hello all, I am having a small problem with a bsd box of mine. Using the file manager in kde, I can type \\ip_address and get prompted for a username and password for the coresponding server on my domain. However, When I type, \\servername, I again get prompted for a username and password, but it gets rejected. I think it is having problems looking up the name ... which is kind of strange to me as I can ping the server by name. Does any one have an idea how to fix this problem .. I googled for a bit but was unable to find a solution. Thanks Peter
Has no one had this problem before ? I know I have not seen many posts on google groups about it .. but I thought for sure someone here could help. I am really stuck.
