Hello,
I have the following setup:
Fedora Core 6: cheeky (192.168.0.11/24, kernel 2.6.18-1.2869.fc6),
trying to share dir /home/cheeky/Desktop/Documents and a printer.
[root at cheeky ~]# smbclient -L localhost -U%

The command was completed successfully.
but I can't access the share (I use a passwordless 'smbguest'
account):
[root at cheeky ~]# smbclient //192.168.0.11/Documents
Password:
Server not using user level security and no password supplied.
tree connect failed: Call returned zero bytes (EOF)
from the Windows machine I can see both the printer and the
'Documents' folder, but when I try to open the folder I get:
Cannot access
\\CHEEKY\Documents
The network name is neither not found on the running network, or is
incorrect.
C:\>net use e: \\192.168.0.11\Documents
Error 67: The specified shared directory cannot be found. Make sure
you have specified the network name correctly. If the problem
persists, contact your network administrator.

preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
dns proxy = no
guest ok = yes
guest account = smbguest
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /usr/spool/samba
browseable = yes
public = yes
guest ok = yes

Thanks in advance for any pointers.
