I have been running a samba network at home with great success for several months. I just recently wanted to do something different. I wanted to map one of my windows 98 boxes to my samba server. I have tried several different ways including using swat. I can see the machines but cannot see the shares. I tried to map anyway(in case they are not browsable by Linux but still there[ they are there because I share them on my network to other win98 boxes]) and I still failed :(
I also just created a printed share. A HP laserjet 4 which prints great in linux. I can see it on my windows 98 boxes but when I print to it, it does nothing. Not even an error.
Below you'll find my smb.conf any help would be greatly appreciated
Regards
Mike
