Maaz,

The newest version of Samba should take care of your inquiry with no problems at all as long as you have the configurations correct on both ends.

On the M$ Windoze side, you will have to be sure to add all of the correct information to allow the RH box to access the shares (adding the user and machine info, etc) but beyond that there should be no further issues if Samba is configured correctly.

John

Hi Maaz,

can you try "showmount -e 10.0.0.1" on nfs client ?

showmount? I think we're talking about windows shares here. Correct me if I'm wrong...
