Re: [Plug] Samba Problems


DId you check the smb.conf file, and make sure that you're all in the 
same workgroup?  If you and your friends both set up the defaults, then 
you are by default in teh same group.

ALso , make sure that the windows clients are running MIcrosoft windows 
network, and that they have file and printer sharing installed....

Later-
