Hey All

I'm trying to set up Samba(and Windows) so I can print from my Windows
Box to my FreeBSD box and also access files on my unix box from Windows.
I can't seem to be able to setup the Windows part correctly (I think
thats my problem). This is probably more likely to be a question for a
Windows person. But a Windows person probably never even heard of Samba!
anyway included is my smb.conf file. If someone can give me pointers I
would be very grateful (I learned Unix first and I still don't
understand Messy Windows!!)

Thanks,

Dave

# many!) most of which are not shown in this example

# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) 
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"
# to check that you have not many any basic syntactic errors.
