Hi, got a q./problem
using Samba to share my convieniently placed knoppix laptop, I can browse the root directory and such... but... what i navigate to /mnt/hda1, it always comes up blank..... containing nothing..... any ideas on why that is?
Thank ya'll'z
You probably did not mount the device.
as far as i can tell, it's mounted... (im accessing from a WinXP machine.... and the hd's mounted on the knoppix laptop)
This page explains samba in redhat 9, starting at the network file sharing topic, and might help: http://www.cclug.org/wiki/Main/HomeDesktop
try mount hard drives again...
try reconfigure file /etc/samba/smb.conf on the bottom you must have something like this:
[hda1]
comment = /mnt/hda1
browseable = yes
path = /mnt/hda1
writeable = yes
preexec = /bin/mount /mnt/hda1
postexec = /bin/umount /mnt/hda1
When you do that, you can restart samba, just type in root terminal: /etc/init.d/samba restart ,
after that open my workgroup compters on win xp comp.
