Hi,
I know that this question has been asked many times but i can't find
the correct solution from anywhere.
I have 4 computer on the LAN connected as follow.
comp1(WinXP)---------------------------------> hub1---->router
comp2(winXP)---------------------------------> hub1---->router
comp3(WinXP)wireless ---> access point----> hub1--->router
comp4(CentOS 4.2)-------------------------------------->router
I have samba installed on CentOS 4.2 with SELinux enable, everything is
up 2 dated. I use swat to make a share folder. testparm doesn't show
anything suspicious. Connecting to samba share folder from the same
CentOS machine is possible. However, my Windows XP machines can only
see my linux machine through network neigbourhood but they can not
access it. Here is my smb.conf
---------------------------------------------------------------
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2006/02/16 14:49:12
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = MSHOME
;note that encrypt passwd = yes and smb passwd file =
/etc/samba/smbpasswd by default
[fat32Share]
comment = Shared files from Darkportal
path = /mnt/fat32/share
valid users = user
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
[nimbus]
comment = Samsung printer, the white one on Darkportal
path = /var/spool/samba
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do i have to open anyport to allow windows machines access samba
shares? Does this have anything to do with SELinux? Any suggestion is
welcomed.
Thanks in advance
Thai
