[NMLUG] Couple of samba questions.
sorry, Joe. I think you've got my dilemma backwards. I am not able to
access a winxp share from linux/samba. Winxp can access samba shares just
fine.
for the record though,
server=share
no active directory
all shares work on linux/samba box and can be accessed by all other os's.
