Smile Another SAMBA one, check it out!


Here is it:
2 windows me computers
1 red hat 7.3 computer

The problem:
windows computers cannot see linux shares
How can i access windows shares from linux?

status:
all the 3 computers can ping each other
windows computers can acess linux apache server, ssh, ftp, all working fine except samba.
smbd and nmd are running for sure, I can access the linux shares on the linux computer with smbclient using the users I added with smbadduser computer. Why when I click on the linux computer name on internet neigborhood on windows (yes, linux computer name is there), I click it and a password window appear (is it normal? does it has something to do with windows logon name) I put the password for the user that is the same for samba and windows logon and linux logon. I got permission dennied. Does it have something to be with the samba group or what?
The net topology is not client server.

Other question, can i see windows shares over kde? konquero has an icon named "network" when i click there some error happens.

Here is my [global] config section

[global]
workgroup = <pick a workgroup name>
netbios name = MYBOX
server string = Linux Server
interfaces=eth0
encrypt passwords = yes
os level = 1
preferred master = no
domain master = no
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
hosts allow = 192.168.0.




Then on the Windows clients goto there Network properties and under "Primary Network Logon:" select "Client for Microsoft Networks"

REBOOT! then when it asks for a username and password enter the remote Sambs username and password and then you should be set up for sharing!

I think I have discovered my problem, there is a NT pdc on the network and it's confliting with the linux server. If I change the option "security" to "share" all happens to work except for the home and all other password related share.
How can I fix it?
