452948 2006-05-26 22:52:00 I don’t know what you have & haven’t done & at the moment I don’t have time to read thru this thread ( I will do this latter on)

One suggestions is have you tried tacking all the shearing off the win xp computer? & tried putting it back on?

452949 2006-05-27 00:58:00 Thats all fine and dandy, its removed them all now...

Tried re-mapping with net use z: \\192.168.0.7\external
After asking for a username (to which I just pressed Enter) it said:
System error 1223 has occurred.
The operation was cenceled by the user.

Sooo... One thing that I _did_ notice was that in My Computer all the drives WERE showing the "connected" icon as opposed to with the "x" to say it couldnt re-connect?!

Odd indeed!
You could try entering the 'nobody' user (for the linux box) and no password, rather than just hitting enter. Then see what it does. Perhaps WinXP feels it has to supply credentials, even if not needed. Weird.

452950 2006-05-27 02:30:00 Is that the only one with multiple user accounts? Samba might want to know the names of allowed users, even if it doesn't want passwords? It must be a configuration thing. Graham L (2)
