I'll make the backup but what do I add?On Mon, Mar 12, 2012 at 9:33 AM, James Mcphee <jmcphe@gmail.com> wrote:
You would add it to the [global] section of the smb.conf. It's a hairy config to edit, so be sure to run testparm on it to make sure it works before restarting. And make backups!On Sun, Mar 11, 2012 at 9:21 PM, Michael Havens <bmike1@gmail.com> wrote:
This must be text I have to add because I don't see anywhere in smb.conf that I can add the ports. Sorry but I need to know what to type in.On Sun, Mar 11, 2012 at 8:53 PM, James Mcphee <jmcphe@gmail.com> wrote:
Add smb ports=139 445 to your smb.conf. It "might" work :)On Sun, Mar 11, 2012 at 8:38 PM, Michael Havens <bmike1@gmail.com> wrote:
okay james..... I am figuing that this is done at.... I've been looking for how to this for A while now. How do you do it? There it is. I found a GUI app that did it called 'firestarter'. Unfortunately opening the ports didn't help the situation any. ports 137-139 and 445 are now open.

====1) As you initially asked, your XP account name was changed. Please refer to the enabling of the guest account HowTo in: http://unixwiz.net/techtips/samba-xp-printing.html NOTE: I am assuming that these machines are protected inside your network, since it's usually a BAD IDEA to enable the guest account otherwise. Verify your WORKGROUP and NetBIOS name in XP.Please, then, attempt to connect from XP and tail the log and see what Samba is whining about?====
Not sure of the logs name. Can you help me out? I also don't know about the net
