You could do one of several solutions to this problem: Assign static IP's via your router based on MAC address. On windows issue the command "ipconfig /all" and see what the "Physical address is. Then in your router assign an IP address to this machine address. Repeat this for every machine you have. Make sure that your Window clients have the NetBeui protocol running. On your Linux machine get the MAC address by issuing the command: /sbin/ifconfig -a Then write the the HWaddr for eth0 (that's usually the default network connection). Then repeat the same thing as you dis for your Window's clients. I would also make sure that your Samba is configured as a WINS server so that your Window's clients will look at it for other hosts. Now another way to do it and still maintain independence for your wife's laptop is to setup a "caching DNS server" along with a DHCP server. I would also make this my SAMBA server. I use this configuration at home without any problems. In fact I also made my Linux machine a "Print server". Here is my sample smb.conf file: [global] log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully* obey pam restrictions = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 IPTOS_LOWDELAY null passwords = yes guest ok = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u wins proxy = yes wins support = yes dns proxy = yes netbios name = samba_server writeable = yes server string = FedoraFC3 Samba Server %v unix password sync = yes local master = yes preferred master = yes domain master = yes workgroup = myworkgroup.com hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127. name resolve order = hosts lmhosts wins bcast max log size = 50 pam password change = yes remote announce = 192.168.1.255 printing = cups printcap name = cups load printers = yes username map = /etc/samba/smbusers os level = 65 security = share [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writeable = yes valid users = %S create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 # If you want users samba doesn't recognize to be mapped to a guest user ; map to guest = bad user # NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to # specifically define each individual printer [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba guest ok = yes guest ok = yes printable = yes public = yes [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /opt/Windows/drivers browseable = yes write list = root # This one is useful for people to share files [tmp] comment = Temporary file space path = /tmp writeable = yes guest ok = yes # A publicly accessible directory, but read only, except for people in # the "staff" group [public] comment = Public Stuff path = /opt/share guest ok = yes writeable = yes printable = no You can see how to setup a "caching DNS server at : http://www.unixwiz.net/techtips/bind9-chroot.html#conf http://www.wwnet.net/~stevelim/dns.html and for DHCP google it or use something like this dhcpd.conf file: authoritative; ddns-update-style interim; ignore client-updates; subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { # --- default gateway option routers router.myworkgroup.com; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option domain-name "myworkgroup.com"; option domain-name-servers samba_server.myworkgroup.com, 4.2.2.1; # (4.2.2.1 is a known DNS server) option time-offset -18000; # Eastern Standard Time option netbios-name-servers samba_server.myworkgroup.com; # --- Selects point-to-point node (default is hybrid).
