Apparently because it doesn't work or because the cable co. said they're blocking it? You can use "nmap" to determine if bits on ports 137-9 are filtered between the hosts (or call the cable co and ask, but the support folks probably won't understand...) Just on the winblows side of things: you are maping the drive (or trying to) by hand \\cable.host.ip.num\file-system not relying on network neighborhood which is well um, S*(T. You have NetBIOS over TCP enabled on the Window$ box. The share name in samba.conf must be under some # of characters to work (12 or 14), it took me three weeks to findout why I could use 3 out of 4 exports. That's all my thoughts for now. I feel your pain, -Jon
