Re: Cant get Samba to work properly on redhat 9 and XP

>Anyone that can give me their samba.conf file would be my hero.

Bit of advice, do a google search for " ibm samba tutorial" . Find the link
going to IBM's site and follow this tutorial carefully but exclude the section
on making groups, roaming profiles, and logon scripts. What you are left with
after those exceptions is quite simply the best and easiest Samba tutorial on
the web. This tutorial is from IBM and I got it working quite quickly. However
the tutorial left out two critical things; you have to set a smbpasswd for
root, and you need to have in the smb.conf file an entry, domain logons=yes. XP
needs its registry edited to work with Samba.
