My LAN has a single linux/samba server as a PDC/file server, and several windows workstations. The workstations get their IP addresses from a Linksys cable router DHCP server.

I'm following along in the guide, trying to make printer drivers available from Samba.

Hi guys! when I move a file inside a share (for example, from \\server\myshare\dir1 to \\server\myshare\dir2), Samba manages it in order to make the move inside the server. That is, its very fast because the file never gets downloaded to the client. My problem is that when moving a file across different shares, it gets first downloaded to the client and then copied back to the new location. For

How do I configure this in smb.conf? Thanks. Scott

Hi all, I set up a Samba server (version 3.0.24) names "Lamp" on a Debian Etch distribution. It provides a "guest" (guest ok = yes, guest only = yes, security = SHARE) access to a "share" directory, which works fine. Indeed, I can access \\lamp\share from a Windows machine (named "Ginger") without issuing a password. I can also ping the Linux machine
