I have a mainly windows house with a notebook running Fedora 11. The problem is that when this computer is on the wireless network it shows no computers on the network. It gives me the error that it can't retrieve the shared list from server. However when I am using it on the wired part of the same network it will see all of the other computers.
Situation: 20 computers in the same windows workgroup. They are connected with some switches. Then there is router and a firewall (2 separate hardware, but I don't know how they are connected) with the physical ADSL modem to the internet.
Computers have mostly windows XP, some windows 7.
With my home network, I am using wireless router that is connected to the internet, my headless server, and three other computers wirelessly. My goal is to add a second source of internet to the network by adding a wireless adapter to the server. In this network, the regular computers can not be used since they can't always be on/stable/in range.
I installed Susse today and I am unable to join my home network. The network is called WORKGROUP and I don't even see it. The network has 2 Macs, 1 Ubuntu and 1 Susse. All the other computers are on the network and can share files. I also need access to the two printers on the other computers. Please help! I am connected via a Buffalo router via cat5.
I installed Fedora 17 including all updates. I need to browse the Windows network where I can access and/or view the available shares (folders and printers). I cannot browse the Windows computers on the network. When I open Files from the Favorites bar and click on Browse Network, I see the "Windows Network" icon.
Hello,
i have done 2 days of searching, and have yet to be able to determine the issue with my setup of SAMBA on by fedora instance running in a VBOX virtual server. I have the Fedora 12 instance running a APACHE webserver, with MYSQL and a wikipedia running successfully for several months. This is my first attempt at setting up SAMBA though.
We have a small office network with DSL and a Netgear WNR-2000 wireless router acting as a DHCP server. There are nine devices connected to the router, wirelessly and wired. Whenever a Mac computer tries to connect, it's unsuccessful until we restart the router.
I am using my MSI wind U100 running Ubuntu 10.4 netbook remix, I have 2 networks, One of them always works and one barley ever works, The first one (That always works)Called Aaron's Computer, This router is in the room in which ubuntu was installed, And the first network ever connected to.
Hi fellas
I am setting up a samba server at work to be a fileserver for our windows network. It's all very basic, we have a mix of laptops and desktops running mainly windows 7 and a few Vista. Some connect wirelessly to the router, and the desktop and Ubuntu Server are on Cat 5.
I installed Ubuntu server yesterday and installed it with samba.
