Hi All

I am new to setting up SAMBA.

I have 2 computers I am trying to network.

Both computers have OpenSuSE 10.0 installed.

Any help in what my problem is and how to proceed would be appreciated.

Hi SOTL,

I'm not trying to joke with you, but if both computers are running Suse, why
not use NFS to interact with each other? Setting the server and client up
with Yast was very easy for me (i.e., no conf files manually edited).

cheers,
