changed hostname now problems
I am trying to network my linux machine with a windows Me machine. My host name is now localhost.localdomain and I can't seem to connect to it from the ME machine. I tried //localhost/user and //localhost.localdomain/[user], but to no avail so I thought maybe my hostname is bad because my router doens't pick up a hostname from me.
1. I guess there are two questions, am I somehow hiding my hostname from the network? 2. Why when I change my hostname, can I not open programs until I change it back to its original settings? I do have samba daemons runnings |
What do you have for your computers name in your samba config file? That is what you need to use, or use just your IP
|
ME didn't like the idea of the ip, but what name in the config do you mean? The server string?
