network path not found


Hi

I think I'm starting to get the hang of this

Linux connects with NT. Nt sees Linux but... well this is what I get (XP PRO)

Windows quote:

\\"machine_name" not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

The network path was not found

Don't want to start using the chicken method of trouble shooting. (Peck here and there)

If needed I can post my SMB.conf file

(Mandrake 9.2)

can you ping the machine by hostname?
can you view the shares by ip address?

check the file permision which u shared..... ok...
and one more thing don't share the file from root's folder ...put in another folder other than root...
and check permissions.... its all because of permissions problem i think...
