RE: samba

>No offense, but maybe some of your settings were wrong.

Are you kidding me? What kind of "settings" do I need to mount a samba share on a winxp machine on my network?

And if you want to know.. Lindows 3.0 can mount that very same share "just like that" under Konqueror (and MacOSX can too), while both Red Hat 9 and SuSE 8.2 can not, neither via konqueror or Nautilus. The Nautilus/Konqueror bug seems to be a samba backend bug.

Search the bugzilla if you want to read the bug reports, don't ask me to copy/paste here a page of full explanations. It is not the right place. Go to Red Hat's bugzilla and search through my email address and then reply there regarding this.
