Re: [MLUG] FW: Bengal as useful space?

[Jason McIntosh <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

The odd thing I'm getting is that I still can't for the life of me
remotely connect via samba.  I've tried everything under the sun that I
can think of, and for some reason - it just doesn't work from my Linux
box here on campus.  Has anyone else tried and succeeded from linux, on
a domain other than the UMC-RESOURCES domain?
Thanks!
Jason
