Probably a very simpel samba problem
 
HE all, im pretty new to Linux and just installed RedHat 8. Managed to get audio and video working, but not samba.

When i connect in Konquerer to a different pc, lets say smb://simba (housemate of me running winXP), it shows me his shared folders. But when i enter any of these folders it doesnt show any content!

I tried running smbclient from the commandline and that worked FINE. So i must be doing something very stupidly wrong.

So can you use smbmount to mount the shares on the xp box and work with the files?

Jonathan Archer 03-19-2003 07:46 AM
yeah, works fine, but only in terminal not in konquerer

I'm getting the same problem - thought it was my Win XP firewall but taking that down has no effect

Jonathan Archer 03-19-2003 04:01 PM
read alot of threads in google newsgroups, found like 15 people with the problem but never any solution. :-( smbmount seams to work fine, i can play mp3's from a housemate (streaming!) with no problem so it seems to be a problem of konqueror!

irish_rover 03-19-2003 04:54 PM
What version of Konqueror are each of you using?

Jonathan Archer 03-19-2003 08:45 PM
3.0.3-14

A quick search on here http://bugs.kde.org/simple_search.cg...onqueror+samba

I see several similar problems listed, but most of them show resolved. So maybe upgrading your kde would be the way to go. If you are running RedHat or another RPM based distro I suggest checking out apt4rpm at http://freshrpms.net

uhhh, now im pretty new to linux, any clue hat i might need to update? konqueror or kde?

irish_rover 03-20-2003 05:50 AM
You will probably have to update the entire kde package or least some of the base libraries. What distro are you running? Again I think if you are running an rpm based distro you should try to use apt. Apt will decide what packages you need, get all of them and install them for you.

Jonathan Archer 03-20-2003 05:52 AM
running redhat, used to run debian so i know how apt worls. any change u can tell me what package i need to install apt?

Jonathan Archer 03-20-2003 06:01 AM
ok, installed apt-get
updated, installed, still no result.

DonCallow 03-20-2003 01:20 PM
I'm also running 3.0.3-14 and RH8. Jonathan had no luck updating so I wont do that for now. Any other ideas?

Jonathan Archer 03-20-2003 01:40 PM
