Is it user level or shared level shares?
 
shared level should allow it to be viewed without password I believe
 
user level would mean that they would have to have an account on the Linux box with a password (probaly easier to let use the same pass as on the ME box).
 
I don't quite remember the line but there is also a place you would set the password domain.
 
 
If any of this is wrong, some 1 please correct me.

Subject: Samba woes

I'm going up the perpendicular learning curve of Red Hat Linux 7.2 et al at the moment and seem to have reached an impasse again.
 
Having followed all the instructions I can find for creating Samba shares with my Windows ME machine and still can't see how to get it to work. The ME machine is seeing the Linux machine but alternately asks for a password or says I don't have access. I haven't set a password (as far as I know), all passwords possibly in use on the network don't do any good and everything else seems to be ok.
 
Any ideas?
 
Alex
