thanks to all of you who tried helping with my setup in samba of a
redhat/win network at home. after 8 more hours; and using /webmin/
instead of /samba/; my former instructor in linux was able to get the 2
talking together.
problems were; security set too high in redhat (standard install),
old laptop w/windows 98 ; had to go to win xp,
path for shared files was too long ie; /home/stormy/filename, worked
better with just /shared filename.

don't think i could help anyone else do this, the total time was 24
hours. linux needs to work this out for (simple) desktop users to
popularize it. :-P ( webmin was definitely easier to use than samba)
betty i
see you all saturday
