What is the share name? Windows does not like long share names or sharenames with strange characters in them. Also insure your guest account is valid and if not using the guest account that the user account has a password set with smbpasswd. Send your smbd process 2 sigUSR1 signals, watch your log.smb file and attach to the share. When done, send 2 sigUSR2 signals. sigUSR1 increases debug level, USR2 decreases it. The logs are your friend. Email me the relevant log lines if they make no sense to you to me off list. Regards, Kerry.

When I hit enter on it, windblows pops up a dialogue with an ok button which says \\machine\share "is not accessible. The share name was not found. Be sure you typed it correctly." > I should mention that my other GNU/Linux boxes mount the share of course without a complaint. Can someone please shed some light on this windblows strangeness?
