Hello listers, I think I'm on the verge of making this work, but I can't see the 3000 on the network yet. If there is anyone out there who has made v1.9.16p9 (from the Samba/iX download site) work on their 5.5 machine and would be willing to take a few minutes to look at an amateur's smb.conf file I would be willing to exchange a few minutes of personalized worship. :-) Howard Hoxsie HP3000 System Administrator, MIS, Zones [log in to unmask] Phone: (425) 430-3452 http://www.zones.com Y2K Disclaimer All products sold by Multiple Zones International are third party products and are subject to the warranties and representations of the applicable manufacturers, including but not limited to Y2K compliance.
