    Hi!

    I have just install Samba by running:
    apt-get -t testing install samba

    then I would like to try listing the shares available
    on my server by running:
    smbclient -L knight(myhostname)

    but the computer output:
    bash: smbclient: command not found

    after I run testparm it outputs:
    Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
    Processing section "[homes]"
    Loaded services file OK.
    Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE
    Press enter to see a dump of your service definitions

    # Global parameters
    [global]
     workgroup = GODDESS OFFICE
     server string = %h server (Samba %v)
     obey pam restrictions = Yes
     passdb backend = tdbsam, guest
     passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
     passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
    *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword: %n\n .
     syslog = 0
     log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
     max log size = 1000
     dns proxy = No
     wins support = Yes
     panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
     invalid users = root

    [homes]
     comment = Home Directories
     create mask = 0700
     directory mask = 0700
     browseable = No

    I am also using Windows XP. I can see my linux
    computer in XP, but it never activate when I typed in
    login and password. I just want to work the files
    between XP and linux, and store the files in linux.

    Best regards,
    Terence
