The XP Pro machine is named, 'red_hat'. Here's what happens when I try to list the shares on red_hat from my debian machine, 'debian': [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ smbclient -L red_hat added interface ip=192.168.0.3 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 error connecting to 192.168.0.2:139 (Connection refused) Error connecting to 192.168.0.2 (Connection refused) Connection to red_hat failed When I do a nmap of red_hat, port 139 is indicated as closed, although I currently can see my samba shares running on debian.
