Samba Config

Hi ForumKid,

when i installed samba, it's not that difficult to do. all you have to do edit the file /etc/smb.conf.
here's a link that may also help to make the configurations easier.
try this out: "http://www.linuxnewbie.org/nhf/intel/network/samba/samba1.html"
hope you 'll find what you're lookin' for

happy samba networking!


Earl

Well if anyone is interested on knowing how, this is what you have to add to your smb.conf file.
interfaces = 192.168.1.2
bind interfaces only = yes

Thanks
