You need to make sure you have installed and configured samba and NFS correctly. You will also need to modify the default firewall rules to permit samba connections. This usually means accepting UDP 137,138 and TCP 139, 445. Not sure about the ftp error you are seeing. Could you be having a problem with active/passive access? Could also be a firewall problem. For both cases you might temporarily disable the firewall and test to see if that is the actual problem. If it is then search out the changes you need on the firewall to permit the access you want. -- Response brought to you by AutoReponder 0.1 a product of Magic-8-ball productions.
