Hi all
I am a novice user & I have just switched over to Suse10.1 from
Slackware10.2
(been running Slackware since Slackware9.1)
I have 4 PC connected to a home LAN. 1 running Linux, & others are
running WinXP
1)
I have (somewhat) setup samba using Yast, but the thing is, if the
firewall turned off, then I am able to access the LAN from my Suse box,
otherwise it says "Unable to find any workgroups in your local network.
This might be caused by an enabled firewall." But as far as I can
recall there was an option during samba configuration to "Open Firewall
ports"... which I did... so what could be going wrong??
The XP boxes are able to access my samba server without any problem though.
I am also pasting my /etc/samba/smb.conf
Thanks in advance :-)

# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented
# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the
# samba-doc package is installed.
