Hi,
I have success accessing windows XP drive on a PC. But, when I try to access a windows server on the network it saids the connection is broken. It did not ask for the password. Where are the log files for smb for me to trouble shoot?
Thanks,
Charles Li
The syslog did not log information for access the network drive.
How are you trying to access the Windows machine?
I have just done the following as a test. I boot with Knoppix 3.9. I open a konsole command window. I mount the hda1 (C: drive)Next I open up the GUI file manager.Code:sudo mount -t vfat -o ro,users /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1Once that comes up, in the location bar, I use the following to authenticate to a Windows domain & then access a windows networking share.Code:sudo konqueror
In the location bar:If you do not need to authenticate to a domain, the form is:Code:smb:/domain\username@IP.address.of.machineorCode:smb:/hostname
This allows me to access windows shares. I navigate to where I want to save the data, then hit the keys CTRL-T to open a tnew tabbed window. Then in that location bar type:Code:smb:/IP.address.of.machineNow I see the hda1 (C: drive) contents. Just like in windows explorer, select the file & folders you want to copy, CTRL-C or right-click & copy them. Use the mouse & move over to the other tab with the smb connection, then CTRL-V or right-click paste to initiate the transfer.Code:/mnt/hda1/
This method works for me.

Thanks for all your help. I got it but using the IP address.
