I tried "West Kent"; no difference. So I figured to make things simpler; I built an NT account for "Bubba" and logged in as him from my Linux box. Again, Linux/Samba reports that I am logged in as guest and I don't have the access I should have. BTW, I'm fairly new to internet/Linux-speak; what's "IIRC"? (Sorry for my ignorance.)
