I am a newbie, trying to learn Linux. I am using Mandrake 8.0. My linux
box is connected by Linksys router to cable modem and three other
windows boxes. I have now gotten to the point where I can see the lother
machines with nmblookup, but I cannot connect in the file manager.
Message "Can not connect to local host" or similiar. Also I cannot find
my machine (Alvin) with smbclient. I would appreciate any help I can
get. Interestingly, even the downloaded Corel OS automatically installs
Samba, but cannot find any audio cards. I have thought of copying their
smb.conf file since it is ffairly clear and simple. Thanks
