Samba is Up but still having file sharing prob!
Goodday!
I am using RH9 and my Samba is Up and working,
My WIN2000 can access the RH9 CDDROM shares now.
But there is one problem.
I tried to put my Root folder from RH9 to share .
I used my win 2000 to access the folder , using "My Network Place."
i get a message " \\Localhost\root is not accessible. The netwoek name cannot be found"
But the strange is that i can access RH9 CDROM folder from WINDOWS!
i wonder if my Samba setting is set right!
But my CDROM settings from Samba is exactly the same as ROOT settings.
The Samba settings is displayed below.
Base Options:
path: /root
Security Options:
guest account :nobody
read only:Yes
guest ok: No
Browse Options
Browseble :Yes
Miscellaneous Options
Available: Yes

Could you post the entire smb.conf file? It may help to see both the CDROM and /root onfis together. It could be as simple as the wrong punctuation in the wrong place. Also, I am assuming that the Linux system is a separate system from the 2000 box. (Don't laugh, he could be running VMware.) Since it is a different system, why would it come up as localhost in your query? Should it not be the IP address or host name of the linux box? Unless you replaed your hostname for localhost for the purposes of posting.

Oops sorry for that!
Here is my samba.conf file. Please Help!

[root]
comment = root
path = \10.0.0.13\root
guest account = novkhan
See the differences between them all?
Try this:
[root]
comment= roots drive
path = /root
guest account = no
valid users = novkhan root
browseable = No
writable = no
write list = novkhan root
browsable = no
That will make you share the home's root which the path is /root
guest access will be denied and you won't be able to see that share in network browser
the only users that can access it will be root and novkhan
Also, did you add the user novkhan to samba?
#smbuser -a novkhan
create password
This is all from memory... so I may have gotten some syntax incorrect.
