If I cancel the window with this message, nothing happens. > Alternatively you can open up a terminal, became root with su then > system-config-samba This works, but poorly: I can add a shares, but only a directory, not a printer for instance.. Now I have new problems: I tried to use swat. Installed everything, configure everything (xinetd...) but I cannot connect to swat: - - with localhost:901, firefox is searching for localhost.com (and fails) - -with "hostname":901, firefox is searching for hostname.com (and faisl) - -with IP:901, I get a message: "connection has been reset... try again..." and so on. The port 901 is open according to system-config-firewall (which I cannot access through System>Admin (like system-config-samba...) How can I get rid off these "stupid" security setting which are set in a such a way that you cannot configure anything: they block anything if you ask for samba, firewall, etc. instead of asking for root password, and you cannot graphically login as root and.... give message which cannot be understand. I stopped Selinux, but nothing has changed up to now. Using f14 Thanks for (understable) answers. - -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 4286 2145 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk476dcACgkQdE6C2dhV2JVyUwCfc4XNWCKjC8o22CAIGArLyFm6 TLAAoIXYDT47GO2Fx5/i1Ai+LGvoVDV7 =Fd0e -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
