My win box can browse my samba box but I have no idea of how do make samba
browse win. Can anyone send me a copy of an smb.conf file that will enable a
samba box to browse a windows network?
Thanks
John

Samba, properly configured. (It's that "properly configured" part
that'll get ya!) Actually, it's all in one file: /etc/smb.conf. Then you
start the daemon (script is in /etc/init.d, generally). There is also
an excellent troubleshooting guide in the Samba documentation called
DIAGNOSIS.TXT.
