You cannot see it if you're not running samba on the FreeBSD box. The window box uses SMB to communicate with other winboxes. And it announces its presence on the net with SMB. This is what the samba package will do for you, if you have to have it that way. Mostly used if you want the FreeBSD box being a server to the M$ box, or if you want M$ printing via the FreeBSD box. If you just want to connect and get/put files, use ftp from the M$ to the FreeBSD box! > > > > > > which are alocated in the network, i mean the connected PC's are not > > > listed? > > > What shall i do? > > > _sorry_ for bothering you with windows stuff. > > > > > > > you need to switch on "NetBIOS over TCP/IP" (at Win9X) > > and install Samba (on FreeBSD) > > > > # cd /usr/ports/net/samba > > # make > > # make install > > > > there are examples for smb.conf, etc, etc, etc. just dig it a bit deeper. > > > > Thanks, i ll do. > > -pons > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- __o regards, Gunnar ---_ \<,_ email: flygt@sr.se ---- (_)/ (_) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
