I assume I am doing(or not) something extremely simple that is causing my
XP boxes to not see my linux(FC4) Samba server in the 'My Network Places'.
I can access the shares by 'Map Network Drive' and using the IP
address(192.168.0.1).
I have set the workgroup name 'DAMEN' in the lmhosts file.
192.168.0.1 DAMEN
I have set the workgroup in the smb.conf file.
workgroup = damen
netbios name = damen
I have configured the Samba server to be the Domain Master Browser
os level = 35
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
I have configured the [global] to be browseable.
browseable = yes
public = yes
I have set the XP box to be on a home network(not bussiness network) and
workgroup to DAMEN.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Fred
