    TIA

    I can get samba sorta working. I made a directory on 9.3 called /zak and
    shared it as hard as I could and was able to copy stuff on to it from a
    WinXP machine without needing to login.

    This is part of my samba.conf ...

    [zak]
    path = /zak/
    guest ok = yes
    read only = no
    valid users =
    admin users =
    case sensitive = yes
    msdfs proxy = no

    How do I secure it so it needs a password to gain access?

    Making it like that (above) was the only way way I could get access.
    SuSE is in LAN with a Novell 5.0 file server and no Windows domain
    controller.

    It isn't critical for me but I want to be able to do it in a Windows LAN
    without a domain controller for a client because I want to keep him away
    from Win 2003 SBS if I can. I have already said it would be better to
    use Linux than install a Windows domain controller. I gotta bigmouth.
