Greetings; I have some of the download storage shared between this box and my firewall box which is still running RH7.3. Let me rephrase that, I did have some samba shares from this box to the firewall... Somewhere along the line, the RH7.3 version of samba seems to have quit talking to this FC2 box, complaining about the login passwords. I just checked that startup file and the passwords are good. Now, there are 2 shares on that box shared with this one, using essentially an identical script except for the actual share names. It works just fine. Neither of these scripts has been modified since sometime back in 2001, and until the FC2 install here, had been working flawlessly. Whats step one in troubleshooting this? -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
