have you set up the winme client details in /etc/hosts and /etc/host allow files?

It caught me out before.

also has the winme client login been given permissions for the shared files.

...

I have been trying to setup a samba server for a WinME client.

I can see the samba server from windows, in the correct workgroup. I can ping from windows to the server and from the server to windows.

If i setup a share on the WinME side, i can then browse that for the server side.

I try to connect using - net use * \\tahuna\samdata and i get an error 53: message. If i type smbclient -L tahuna , it returns that there is a share called samdata. If i type smbclient -L dt01 - dt01 is the client, it returns the correct info also.

Can anyone help me, i have checked the net and can't find any info to help me. I have also used a windows 95 client in case ME was stuffing something up but same problems.

Thanks Dave
