Problem networking with samba to the pc
« on: February 05, 2005, 09:58:38 PM »
I have recently just installed samba and got it to picck all the pc shares up on the Amiga but I can't get the Amiga to appear in the my network places on the pc.

I am using 2000 Adv. server.

What could be the problem and how could I correct?

Thanks

Any suggestions on correcting the problem?
Could it have something to do with the version of samba being used?

Thanks

I tried using the WINS but it interrupted every other connection aswell.

I did manage to get the Amiga Computer to show up on the pc once but it kept on saying that it couldn't be contacted.

about 2 years ago I got it to network fully to the pc but the Amiga couldn't access any of the files now it is the other way round.

Anyway of getting it to work?

Thanks

I am also running AmiTCP 4.0 to get it on the internet.

What script should be put in?

Would it possible to be sent the AmigaSamba guide since I don't appear to have it.

Thanks

I can now connect to the amiga from the pc aslong as I also put \all after it otherwise it says that the server is not configured for transactions.

How do you configure an Amiga server for transactions?

Thanks
