Will do...
I have the network set up at home and my DSL account with e-mail is at the
office...I am going to try to rectify that situation this weekend!!
I have added an account with the same login and password to the Redhat box
and, (I think) I have added the password to the smbpassword file...I have
been trying to use the SWAT and sometimes the GUI is harder to figure out
than going in and modifieing it with a text editor...
I will try to get the conf file posted ASAP...and I will play more with the
password stuff this weekend.
