Network Stalled!

Two things

 

I have file sharing working fine... I can see my Mandrake Machine on my Windows Network...

 

Just type \\ok-linux\SHARE_USER

 

and it comes up and I can see the files. Works, but I cannot seem to configure Write access for that share from the WINDOWS Machine. On teh Linux machine I have full writes to teh folder for Owner, Group, & Other... what can I do to get write Access?

 

Secondly, I have my windows shares mounted via the Mandrake control panel and they mounted with no problem... SO, when I goto the /mnt directory it si empty and at the bottom of the window it says "STALLED" what does that mean?

 

Last and dumbest...

 

I see how I can change the background of a window, how can I change the background of all my windows across the board?

1) Have you got writable=yes in the relevant section of /etc/samba/smb.conf?

Then type "samba restart" as root to re-read the file (or wait a minute or so).

 

2) STALLED implies it is waiting for data - what are you using to browse?

Have you installed smb4k? If not, type "urpmi smb4k" and see if this helps.

 

3) Have a look in start->system->configuration->configure your desktop->lookNfeel
