I'm transitioning myself from Red Hat 9 to Fedora Core 1. I had Samba working on RH9 for my home network. I haven't gotten there yet with Fedora. When I try to access the disk shares from Windows 2000, I see the server under the Workgroup in "My Network Places". When I double-click on the server icon, I get an error dialog declaring "\\Orpheus is not accessible. The network path was not found."

I'll start looking for a Samba Howto. In the meantime, I thought I would see if this error message meant anything specific to anyone on the list.

Thanks!

I had a similar problem that turned out to be the firewall. I opened ports 137-139,445 in /etc/sysconfig/iptables, restarted iptables, and the problem went away.
