next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I have samba installed, and I have my windows laptop working
and printing with FreeBSD.
I can copy from windows to unix from my windows machine,
but for the life-of-me I can not seem to copy back and forth
while stationed at the unix box.
I have read man smbclient and attempted to see examples on the
net. The terminology throws me.
the only name I know is my laptop name which is, "laptop"
this is what "$ smbclient -L //laptop" gets me;
smbclient -L //laptop
added interface ip=192.168.1.1 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0

My laptop is actually at 192.168.1.2
There are command I see examples of such as;
smbclient //server/service
Even if I could connect to the windows box from unix, I havn't
seen any examples of how to copy files.
I've looked in the traditional web spots but most samba docs
seem to show setup for going as far as I have - that is
printing, and windows->unix copying from windows.
Any pointer would be helpful. Thanks.
