It now looks like an XP issue (*grumble, grumble > XP Home, grumble, grumble*) rather than a Samba issue, details below. I'm connecting from a Linux to a XP Home system. I managed to do it without much trouble. I think what you have here is permission problems on the XP side. (which is what you noted already) I can't provide more details as I'm on my Linux box. I can only say I use this.. sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,uid=500,gid=500 //XP_IP_Address/sharename /mnt/xp_share > > Am Do, den 18.03.2004 schrieb Tom Enterline um 22:50: > > > Hi, > > > > > > I'm trying to get my FC1 system to share files with an XP > Home system in > > > peer-to-peer mode - I don't want to set up a domain > controller, etc. If > > > I boot my system into W2K, I can share files fine, so > basic networking > > > and setup on the XP system seems OK.
