Hugh:
I Think you're right on the URL: http://www.linuxnewbies.org/ instead of
www.linuxnewbees.org.
Must be a typo.
Mikkel L. Ellertson and everybody else:
This is the config file:
I've changed a few names and left out a part of the config file.
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from client (no.need.to.know)
# Date: 2000/10/21 23:36:23
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = MY.HOME.NETWORK
server string = server
time server = Yes
os level = 65
dns proxy = No

guest account = client
hide dot files = No
[printers]

guest ok = Yes
print ok = Yes
[tmp]

read list = @staff
write list = @staff

I'm not sure this is enought information to solve this problem, but I hope
someone can tell me what's wrong with this setup.
Mikkel L. Ellertson,
You mentioned upgrading a couple of things on my Redhat 6.1 box. Wouldn't it
be easier to buy a RH6.2 distro and do a upgrade?
I don't know what size the "upgrades" are you have to download from the
internet, but I have a 56K6 modem connection and that could get a bit
expensive if you have to be on the net for say 8a10 hours.
Anyway, Thank you for the tip. I appreciate the concern.
I hope the text above makes sence (I'm not that good in english)
By the way, you're right about the IPchains. 2.0.x uses Ipfwadm, 2.1.x and
2.2.x use Ipchains. I've missed that detail in the manual before.
any reply appreciated,
Remon
