This is driving me nuts.
If my linux box is on the windows computers network neighborhood quits working. (browsing anyway..I can find the computers by searching for them)

Also even when I search for my computer in WinME call it CLINUX...it finds it and shows a public folder but when I click on it it says "The Share name was not found be sure you typed it correctly."

I did type it correctly.

Also how can I access the windows computers shared folders from Linux? I haven't figured that out yet either.

Thanks.. oh and here is my smb.conf file I copied it from some web page.

[global]
workgroup = @Home
server string = Jacks Linux Samba Server
