see the linux redhat 7.2&nbsp;workgroup name in windows 2000&nbsp;Network 
neighborhood&nbsp; but when I click on it&nbsp;says network not found type of 
&nbsp;error. I can t&nbsp;acccess my linux box.&nbsp;I created a share on 
SWAT.&nbsp;It must have to do with&nbsp;with rights or a setting I am not doing 
in SWAT! I had problems setting it up too because 7.2 uses xinetd and&nbsp;there 
is all this info for inetd which I think was used with older 
versions.&nbsp;There is too much misinformation! I tried using the Linux Bible 
7.1 and it dosent tell you everything. thank god there is a users group everyone 
has been a great help!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<BLOCKQUOTE>I don't remember who was having the samba problem with w2k or if 
  they are still having it but..... <BR>I too was having a problem, not with the 
  w2k computer getting into Linux but trying to get into the w2k computer from 
  Linux. I stumbled upon this and it rocked right on in.... <BR>"mount -t smbfs 
  -o username=useronw2k,password=whatever //w2kcomputer/sharename /mnt/wherever 
  <BR>Try that and see how it works, hope this helps, btw this was on Mandrake 
  8.2 <BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML></x-html>
