Hey Linux community,
I just typed 2 paragraphs and hit a key, and all went bye-bye! Dam!
Anyways...
I'm running FC4 from FC3 and did a fresh install. My other machine is a hard-wired Windows XP Professional w/SP2.
I've experenced sevral problems and resolved all of them but sevral.
Each is using a fixed IP and hostname, no DHCP. I'm using a Linksys router, and for testing purposes I disabeled all firewalls on either computer to make sure they wernt issues in my problem.
Firstly, I was exprencing that my 2 printers connected to my FC4 box, an parrlell port HP LaserJet 4 and an USB HP PSC 950, were not sharing correctly in Windows. I could connect though adding them with a URL, "http://FLS1:631/printers/HP_LaserJet_4", but when adding them through browsing the network as \\FLS1\HP_LaserJet_4", it would say it could nto connect and access was denied. I messed witha few setting and now both methods work.
I can view the Linux shares from my Windows machine and write to them.
I have a partationed 60Gb hard drive to 30GB's each. Although say I only want to offer 5GB's on the network_share folder or my Linux box. How would I set a quota for that?
My main problem is that I cannot view my Windows shares from Linux. I was able to on FC3 with SMB4K. Now in FC4 I cannot from GNOME, or SMB4K. In SMB4K, the machine shows up but nothing under the "+" when I extend it. I tried changing my windows username from "Brian Feinzimer" to "brian_feinzimer" and adding into Linux and then making it a Samba user with the same password. I also tried that in the authantication with SMB4K but to no avail. I re-did the setting to share for windows and disabeled all firewalls but to no avail. I still have my linux firewall disabeled so I can use SMB4K to see anypart of the network. If you could post the exact line I need to post in the firewall port exception page of FC4 that would also help.
Plese help me, I'm only 15 but enjoy working wiht this while still having a life
