Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I have a little network here. We have a cable modem that connects to a |
| 4 |
Linksys router then we have two computers that hook to it and share the |
| 5 |
internet. I have my Gentoo Linux box that I just installed samba on. |
| 6 |
She has a Windoze XP box. I think I have my samba set up, not real sure |
| 7 |
though, but I can not figure out the windoze box. I can ping the IP |
| 8 |
address of her windoze box from my Linux box, no clue on how to do that |
| 9 |
on her windoze box so I assume it can see my box too. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Can someone hold my hand and get this so I can get this to work? She |
| 12 |
seems to get hers pretty buggy and not boot and I just want to set it up |
| 13 |
so that she can drop her Documents folder on my system each night for a |
| 14 |
back-up. Sorry windoze, you suck. LOL |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Oh, the router uses DHCP so how do I let it figure out what the address |
| 17 |
is? In case you can not tell, this is all new to me. Here is the |
| 18 |
testparm thing, I did read what I could understand at least: |

What I am trying to share is /mnt/data/. Not sure what that other stuff is. |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
Oh, if this will work in IE, that would be a HUGE plus. She still uses |
| 79 |
that thing. < pukes > I'm also not sure what to type into IE to get to |
| 80 |
my box either. |
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
Thanks for any help you can provide. I was following a how to but I |
| 83 |
think I got lost, hopefully just on the windoze part. |
