somewhat new to linux, used dos / windows for a long time.
Got a windows workgroup with numberous PC's - XP and a XP 2003 server.
Able to brownse internet / get e-mail (external server) no problems in linux system, but unable to browse the local workgroup / or attach to any shares.

installed Samba
turned on the SMB as well as nmb services
turned off the firewall in linux (to make sure that wasn't causing the problem.)
modified the smb.conf to include the workgroup name.

testparm as follows -
[global]
workgroup = MSHOME
server string = Samba Server Version %v
interfaces = lo, eth0, 192.168.12.2/24, 192.168.13.2/24
passdb backend = tdbsam
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
os level = 64
local master = No
domain master = No
hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0, localhost
cups options = raw

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No

[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
printable = Yes
browseable = No


any help would be appreciated.

Searched around more and tried a different samba install? - -
yum install smb4k

which after loading up, now shows all my windows PC's etc...

BUT - I don't know how I can login using a differnt set of credientials... ie. 'login as' style....
I want to be able to login under multiple accounts....


THanks,
Jason.
