Anton - thx for the tips. I got some errors running these commands,
as follows.<br>
<br>
smbclient -L localhost
<br>
smbclient -L <name of Linux computer>
<br>
...these two commands ran fine, showed my the shares I had set up<br>
<br>
smbclient -L <name of winxp computer>
<br>
...this command gave me the error "connection to <winxp>
failed"<br>
<br>
smbclient //localhost/<your share>
<br>
...this command gave me the error "tree connect failed:
NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME"<br>
<br>
smbclient //<name of linux PC>/<your share>
<br>
...this command gave me the error "tree connect failed:
NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME"<br>
<br>
How would I fix these errors? thx very much<br>
<br>

<br>

<br>

<br>

<br>

<br>

<br>

<br>
|
<br>

On the linux computer, run:
<br>
<br>
smbclient -L localhost
<br>
smbclient -L <name of Linux computer>
<br>
smbclient -L <name of winxp computer>
<br>
<br>
(the names of all computers in the workgroup show up at the bottom of
<br>
the 'smbclient -L localhost' command).
<br>
<br>
The commands should list the shares available on each computer. Next,
<br>
from the Linux computer, run:
<br>
<br>
smbclient //localhost/<your share>
<br>
smbclient //<name of linux PC>/<your share>
<br>
<br>
Both of these should allow you to connect to the same computer and give
<br>
you an FTP-like access to the share. If this works, then you will need
<br>
to adjust your WinXP computer. If not, then the problem is on the Linux
<br>
side. In either case, it should give you more information about what's
<br>
going on.
