Hi I am new to relatively new to linux and have a redhat 8.0 machine i need to attach to a 2000 server. Can someone tell me how to do this? Does the Redhat machine get authenticated by the 2000 server. I know about Samba and tried it. I cannot get it to work. Do i have to delete the # or ; symbols to get them recognized by the 2000 server. After i edit the smb.conf on the redhat machine does anyone know what else needs to be done on the server . Thanks
have you checked help filesa on your 2000 machine? I can't remember now but you have to install some file service for Unix, and probably some additional protocol on the server.
let us know if you can't find it, I'll check when I get home tomorrow.
