  1. yeah im on cable and dont have a static ip for my net connection, in your tutorial it seems to be set up for a net connection WITH a static ip. i wasnt to sure if that would ruin my settings or not so i thought id check here first
  2. i am also having problems with samba, and yes i have read at least 3- 4 tutorials, they all basicly say the same thing. yet still i was having troubles. then i typed the the ip adress as you said (192.168.0.1) in my win xp box, and......it worked :) so i can share my linux box and access it from windows, however it only half works. i cant acess my windows files from my linix box, i type "smb:/" in konqueror it shows the wokgroup "mshome" it shows my windows box, but not the directorys i have shared ??? and yes i have shared directorys. any one know what could be causing it ?
  3. im am also having the same problem , and a few others as well with samba, but anyway. i enabled internetconnection sharing through the wizard in the contorl panel/MMC. i disabled the firewall because i knew it would cause me problems, and the win xp computer (192.168.0.2) can not browes the web at all. and yes i also read the how-to's yet still no ICS, my linux box is mandrake 10. yesh the computers can ping each other and ive got samba half working, the windows box can see the files ive shared on linux, linux can see the windows box, and the workgroup name, how ever it thinks that nothing is shared(but there is). im not to woried about the SAMBA problems right now, if any one can shed some light on the internet connection shareing theat would be good, thanks heaps :D
