All I want to do is share a single Dir, from my linux box to the workgroup.
thats it,
I have extencive experience with linux and windows,
wich only makes me feel more like an idiot, for not being able to do this.
I have gone threw tut after tut.
I have gotten it to a point where my linux box can see the workgroup.
But can’t get any further…
Someone please help.
When you have extencive experience with linux and windows (or with any other computer software), I guess you are now waiting for anybody to ask:
. which openSUSE level?
. what did you configure so far (showing the relevant configuration files)?
Thus, my question is, why didn’t youy tell that in your first post?

Have a look at this HowTo:
http://opensuse.swerdna.org/suselanprimer.html
and also
http://opensuse.swerdna.org/susesambaserver.html
Keep the following ideas in mind:
smbpasswd -a <username>

So, it is a base install … I guess I am not that high of level with opensuse, since I can’t even get smb running…
NMB is not running, and returns that as an error when I try to enable it.
I will try to look on how to enable that now…
thank you both for your responces…
hurray, that worked, all i need was that service running, and then i messed with the settings a little, everything works perfect now, thanks guys.

There is a bug in AppArmor on OpenSuse 1.4 that prevents smb and nmb from
running. Go to YaST>Novell AppArmor>AppArmor Control Panel>Configure Profile
Modes. Set usr.sbin.smbd and usr.sbin.nmbd to Complain and not Enforce. Now
try to start both smb and nmb.
su -
rcsmb start
rcnmb start
exit
Go to YaST>System>System Services (Runlevel) and enable both smb and nmb to
run at boot.
