Hi, [please 'cc' me when responding, i'm on digest] I have asked this before, but I have rephrased it hopefully whereas I might get a more accurate response. I have a new FreeBSD 5.1 workstation running Gnome2 and I would like to browse my file server [FreeBSD 5.1] so I can edit files and generally get a visual on what's there etc. The File server is running samba and I can browse it from my laptop [win2k] with no problems... But how should I browse my unix server from my unix workstation? SMB? if so, how do i get the in built file browser in gnome to let me browse the SMB fileserver..? When i try to access the server from my 'network servers' folder in gnome i get :"smb://fileserver" is not a valid location. i did also try 'gnomba' but it tells me smbmount is not found, although it sees the filesystem, it wont let me mount. [samba 3.x is installed on my workstation] help! is there an easier way..?!
