I have defined 2 shares in my smb.conf. When I try to access these
shares from the NT box, I can access only USER1 home directory. For USER2,
I always get the login dialog. I have used smbpasswd to add USER2, but still
can't access it. How do I access USER2 account too?
One other issue, is the u
Another question for anybody with Samba experience...
I'm having trouble getting symbolic links to show up
on my windows machines accessing my Samba shares.

Any help?
Thanks,

I have pretty good understanding on general systems and network concepts.
But, I am totally new to this unix world.

Are you by chance using R
I have just started off learning something on Linux. Any clues as to where I
start, how I start, hours of work the experts here have put in to to reach
that kind of techno. status?
You could try O'reilly's Running Linux and and Administrator's Guide
Both are invaluable books for the newbie an

Remember my machine A and machine B problems of a couple weeks ago? I've
got more *g*. Lots more. I'm sleepy, and there are a lot of problems so
if something seems confused, ask. If nothing else, looking at the
problems again with an eye to providing useful details would help me
learn what to look

Hello,
Perhaps some of you folks could help me out with my sound issue. I downloaded and
installed the latest kernel, and now I have system sound, but I can't get mp3's to
play. I can't get anything from any sound application except if I play the CD-rom.
I've toyed with the settings and ca
