Samba - Shoul I be able to see my own shares?
Posted: Fri Aug 20, 2004 5:20 am
Hi,
I'm trying to set up samba so that I can share files on a LAN that includes windows xp machines.
I installed samba and used to KDE interface to share some directories but when I go to smb://WORKGROUP/ the only shares I see are the shares which other people have on windows machines.
I typed "/etc/rc.d/smb start" to start the fileserver. I looked in my smb.conf file and there are shares listed and the workroup is set as WORKGROUP. Do I need to do something else.
Thanks
