UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

Hi,

I am using Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2, now i am configuring Samba server, i want to access linux directories from Windows xp/2003 desktops. I installed and configured but i am unable to access them, could you please give me suggestion about configurations.


Thanks.

It is always good to post more info like the output of testparm -s
(smb.conf) and the Role the Samba server has. PDC?
I assume you use RedHat Enterprise Server 5.2 with Samba 3.x

Example:
Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC
