Setup Network

Hi,

I installed the latest version…Everything works like a charm. I have Windows Home Server 2003 running and would like to access all of my folders. How can i setup OPENSUSE to find/access my Windows Home Server 2003. Can you help me with this. Just to let you know. Am i missing something so i can access them locally. Thank you for the help in advance.

Hi,

First test if the samba-client has been installed by typing in a console


zypper se samba-client

In the result you get in the first column of the line that contains “samba-client” has to be an “i” which means that the package has been installed. If not you need to install it first by typing


zypper in samba-client

You need to be root to do so. For becoming root you type


su

and after that your root password.

You can access your files typing


smb://servername/folder

everywhere you want to access them. You will be asked for username and password of the server.

hth

Bye
