using redhat 9.0 , using swat to configure samba (localhost:901), it seems to work. I get the error message "Couldn't display smb/// because no host "null" could be found. Check that the spelling is correct and that your proxy settings are correct."
I am using vmware 4.0.5 and windows xp is the host op sys.
In my network places samba sever is viewed but I can't make it through the password screen to open the shares. I ping from either end and have success. What to do?
