samba shares
Samba components are installed and configured, correctly, I think, but users are not permitted to share folders. Root can share, not that I want to do that. When a user tries to share a folder nothing happens. The configuration window shows sharing is enabled. The linux machine can see the win 98 machine to read and write. The windows machine can't see linux because nothing can be shared.

i think...on a non GUI platform....that the shares must be set and defined in samba's conf (smb.conf) file
let i know.... |
Samba is working on SuSE 9.0 but I want to switch to Libranet, which is more dependable, over all. The shares are all listed in smb.conf, copied over from the SuSE installation. But they're still not available. The user still can't designate shares as he is supposed to do. And now that I've modified smb.conf, the win98 used is asked for a password (that didn't happen before) but none is accepted. Samba was set up without passwords.

You could try using webmin-samba. It has a nice gui config section for it. Webmin is browser based so you have to go to https://localhost:10000 to get to it after it is installed. But it seems to be haveing problems with samba 3.0 at the moment.

hey there
what are your samba settings (ie. if you post your config file, maybe we can help you better) are you editing your config file by hand, or are you using another app to do it? i would recommend downloading/using webadmin... later -peon |
Will try webmin as soon as I get the time. Meanwhile, here's smb.conf and something called gdbcommands.
