[Samba] I can't access Linux shared folder from Windows XP.

[Robert Dzikowski]

Hi

I would be grateful if somebody would tell me why can't I access 
shared folder on Ubuntu 5.04 computer (computer name is
my-computer) from my Windows XP computer (its name is tablet-pc). I am
using Samba 3.0.10-Ubuntu. I see this folder in Windows XP but when I
try to access it I get error "\\My-computer\backup is not accessible.
[...] Network access is denied."

/home/rob/samba/map.txt has only one line
rob = Robert
Robert is my account in Windows XP.

I enclosed smb.conf and log.tablet-pc files.

Thanks in advance,
Robert
