Hello, I use kvm on debian with Windoes XP as guest OS. To have XP in the same network I use a tap network device. I start kvm with sudo kvm -m 512 -smp 2 -hda /mnt/ext3_data/Qemu/winxp.img -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:00:00:01 -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no -localtime from a script. I have a fat32 partition mounted on the host which I want to share with XP. I use a samba server as the Quemu build-in samba server did not work. In windows I see the samba server but when trying to connect to the fat32 partition a login is required. First no password works and secondly I don't want a login, I prefer to be able to connect straight away. This is the smb.conf: [global] workgroup = NANOTRONIC server string = Linux SAMBA server3 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 [vfat_data] comment = fat32 drive path = /mnt/vfat_data guest ok = yes Does anyone have an idea what I am missing? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
