Greetings, I have just installed fedora 11 but have been a linux users for several years (Ubuntu). I was able to get everything I needed running with out any problems until I got to sharing Disks/Folders with Windows. I have my Linux box, 2 Windows machines, and a printer on a LAN configured with a single router. The network settings on the PCs have not been change in a long while and everything use to work. I configured Samba to share a backup disk to everyone using the Samba Server Configuration tool GUI. nmb and smb are both running. When I go to "Places-> Network" I see the Windows Network icon. When activating it I get "Failed to retrieve share list from server". I can not ping any other machine. No PC can see the Linux machine but PCs can see each other. I did get the printer to work after a driver install and mail and internet are fine. My linux machine is a wired connection to the router, device eth0. The PCs are wireless. Network Configuration tool also shows a ethernet hardware device pan0 that I know nothing about. My router is set up to use dynamic addressing so I did not add any host/ip pairs to the hosts file. Being only a linux user and not an expert, I don't know what is wrong and nor what to do next.
