I'm trying to configure samba on my Linux machine so I can access directories on an MT box and am being unsuccessful. I'm thinking it has something to do with another problem which I have ignored up to now.
After installing Linux I found that I was unable to ping normal NT machines using their host name. If I use their IP address then the ping works. However I am able to ping Unix machines using their host name AND can ping a number of NT servers using their host name. However whenever I attempt to ping my NT desktop or Windows 2000 laptop by name the ping fails. My NT desktop and Windows 2000 laptop are configured to use DHCP to get their IP address. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! Bruce Bruce W.
