COSMO Now the The dell XP machine is also in the workgroup
‘Mygroup’ Both boxes are able to ping each other by
name. However Cosmo does not show up in the Network
neighborhood on the XP machine?? In the tcp/ip configuration for the XP box I point
to the Linux box as the WINS server. My XP logon/pass match the samba id/pass. Here is the pertinent smb.conf information: workgroup = Mygroup username map =
/etc/samba/smbusers wins support = yes local master = yes os level = 99 domain master = yes preferred master =
yes hosts allow =
192.168.1 127. interfaces = eth0 socket options = TCP_NODELAY
SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 log file =
/var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 [share_data] path = /home/share browseable = yes writeable = yes Thanks for any and all help, JP |
