I'm very new to Linux and I'm having trouble setting up a share between Linux and Windows XP pro.
I have run samba and set it up as best as I can figure out.
I can see the Samba share in Network places on the XP Machine but when I try and access the share I get
"\\Samba is not accessible. You might not have premission to use this network resource...."
I can ping from the XP machine to the Linux Machine and Ping the other way as well.
I have the I.P addresses set up as 192.168.0.1 for the XP and 192.168.0.3 for the Linux.
The smb.conf file is as follows
[global]
workgroup = FENNU
netbious name = Samba
encrypt passwords = yes
[homes]
read only = no
browseable = no
[data]
path = /data
browseable = yes
public = yes
That is my whole smb.conf file. Is it missing anything that will stop my share of the data directory working?
I have added the same user login to both the xp machine and the Linux Machine.
Username: Admin
Password: xxxx (for both)
Also I have added the password to samba for the user Admin by running
smbpasswd
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong. It seems like I'm close because I can see the share but not Actually get into it makes me think that it is a permissions problem.
Oh yeah the XP machine is in a Workgroup FENNU
Help please.
