Thanks for your speedy reply Tom! I am not so lucky, as I can not connect to the default/homes share. Intrestingly enough, in looking through my samba log files, I found a log file belonging to the Win2000 machine that I am trying to connect with (library), but the log file is completely empty (byte lenght = 0). Oh well, please let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks, Charles On 4 Jul 2000, at 22:58, Tommy Forrest - KE4PYM wrote: > I too get the same problem when setting up a new share.
