lmhosts

[Daniel Tan]

GlacierHi all,
        i am puzzled by what i need to do for my windoze machine to map a
drive to a samba server. kept getting unable to browse the computer but able
to ping the samba server. tried mapping "net use z: \\samba_hostname\folder"
and "net use z: \\samba_ip_address\folder" but still encounter that error
message.Had a hosts file in c:\windows. in the end had to remove hosts file
and add in lmhosts and it works! miracle! i thought lmhosts files is
obselete?? any ideas?


Regards,
