I have an xp w/directories shared, and my gentoo w/samba running. The xp sees the Samba Server 3.04 (Bullet) under WORKGROUP, but when I access it, I only get printers and faxes icon. (how can I access the xp from samba??)

I need access to more directories. How do I share directories on my gentoo box, making them available under xp??

Thanks-in-advance!

NEVERMIND, got IT.

In case anyone ask 's the same questions.

in the smb.conf file you will find basic user shares setup, just uncomment and edit the one's you want to use...

# This one is useful for people to share files
[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp
read only = no
public = yes
