[NMLUG] Couple of samba questions.
Thanks for the clarification. It seems like there is a
permissions problem some where. What account are you
using to when you log in to your Linux Box. Does that
account exist on your winxp box? If so what
permissions does it have on the shares and printer on
you winxp system. Please let me know how it goes. If I
may ask why do you need to do the text editing in the
second part of your dilemma?
