Re: [PLUG] Connecting a Mac to a Linux server running IP Masq



On 26 Aug, 2005, at 19:38, Art Alexion intoned:
Is the Mac's implementation of SMB conflicting with Ubuntu's?

Most probably yes.

SMB is not SMB. Apple plays well with Microsoft's SMB.
It has  been tweaked to do so.

While it should work with other SMB servers, it isn't tested to work with them.
