Hi! I am a complete newbie, so if this is the wrong forum for the completely ignorant, please let me know.
I have 4 machines in a workgroup called check (3 running XP and one running Redhat 8.0. From the Linux machine, I can browse and access files on all but one of the XP machines. From the XP machine I can't access (but I can see) from Linux, I can access and browse the shares on the Linux machine. That's bad enough, but I can't access the Linux machine from any of the machines that I can access from the Linux machine. I get a message saying I don't have permission.
In short, I can't seem to go share both ways here. I have included the smb.conf file in the hope that someone can help. TIA.
