Hi guys, total noob here

well i am trying to access files stored on my linux computer/server (Ubuntu) on my windows xp netbook, so i installed Samba on the server, and i can see the printer service on the netbook via "View Workgroup Computers" but i cant see the hard drive.

I tried to share the hard drive but i dont have permission since im not the owner... How do i edit smb.conf and save it accordingly?

Thanks a lot guys
 
Thanks very much mate!

I've located the shared drive using my netbook but now its asking me to log in? What authentication do i use? I've tried the username and password i use to log onto Ubuntu, but no luck

Thanks
 
Well i've sorted a few of my problems now.
1. I've got the torrent client to work and can access it from other computers as i want to.
2. I've got the fileshare to work on my other windows computers as i want to

Is there a way that i can remotely access the server desktop on another computer as if i was actually sitting there? A little like Remte desktop connection on windows?

I cant get my 360 to 'see' the server. Tried to use Mediatomb, but i dont know if im using it correctly to be honest.

Can you guys offer any assistance?

Cheers
