Is there a more user friendly way of using SAMBA? I'm not a technnical person and I've tried webmin to no avail. Any suggestions would help.
There is the Samba "swat" tool. http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/SWAT.html
From memory, you need to install "samba-swat", then you need to enable
and start the swat server with chkconfig and service (or just start it with service when you need it). I think you need xinetd too. Then from a browser running on the same machine, browse http://127.0.0.1:901. I believe when it asks you to login you can use root. *BUT* there are lots of security risks/concerns using this tool, which is why it isn't installed by default. -- Dave K Unix Systems & Network Administrator Mount Laurel NJ _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
