Samba share not showing up

Reply Quote

I wonder if anyone can help me with this.

I've just started using a Vista Home Priemium on a laptop at home. I'm having a problem in that I can't seem to get it to 'see' the smb share on my server. The IP address of the server is 192.168.1.61

So far, no amount of playing with 'network' can get it to show the server and network print.

As I'm new to Windows, being a Ubuntu man, any help would be really helpful.

Silly question, but can you browse to the share via other computers?

Yeah:)

I think I've sorted this now. It was the 'Norton firewall' being over keen.
