This is nice and I appreciate it but I must be lost.
This is the Samba conf file.
I am not able to see the network in the Win box by use of names.
How does that interlate with the Samba conf file?
In short if the Win box does not know where it is how is it going to know how
to get to the Samba files to find out where it is. This seems to be going in
a circle to me. Doesn't the Win box find out where the linux box is from the
win lmhost or host file?
Thanks
Frank
