thanks!

but, i have problem login to linux... after install, i managed to boot linux for once. then after that, there's black screen appeared after linux is loading.

actually are there any noticable difference using ALSA or PULSE audio renderer under ubuntu ? can't seem to differentiate neither...

guys, i have messed up my hdd mountpoint.. how to revert to normal?

i assigned wrong mount point for my mp3 hdd(other hdd) to a partition... now i cant mount/unmount it..

not during installation... i've mounted the hdd inside linux. then i changed the mount point from /media/disk to /media/newname. it works fine. but after i unmount and remount back, the error appeared. already tried reboot linux and its still same...

Hi,

I'm a total noob who had just installed ubuntu 8.1 due to getting sick of WAGs WGAs. I've installed my ubuntu on my old comp which was connected to the same router with my new pc. Through the new pc with vista business, I made a workgroup mshome for home networking. On vista, I can see the ubuntu pc but can't access it more or so the shared folder from it. The most important problem for me is on my ubuntu pc, I can't even see my vista pc. Under places >windows network >mshome my vista pc doesn't showed up (this part right here baffles me since most of the troubleshooting i've read on the net and everywhere occurs no problem). I've tried smb://vista pc's ip address, but still doesn't work. i just need to read my files from my vista pc on my ubuntu. hope somebody can help. thanks.

I'm not sure i understand. But the folders on Vista was been able to use on the when i'm using win xp. But now I upgraded to ubuntu 8.1 ibix (dual boot). I did not alter the settings on the vista folders. the problem is ubuntu can't even see my vista computer.

should I manually adjust network settings to get into mshome network or ubuntu automatically done this?

installing samba 4 now. Finish in another 20 hrs or so. It seems samba 2.3 have been installed but i mark samba 4 for installation and it removed samba 2.3.

change to malaysian repositories..
so you can retrieve the packages faster

ok i did what you told. Here's a screen shot of the outcome.



btw i've inadvertantly installed ubuntu 8.1 on a ntfs hd if that's info any help.

2. the vista has a dynamic ip  . B4 this it was only static no wonder i can't find. So the pinged hostname is fine.
but i can't install windbind. here's the problem:


3. this is the testparm result

ok, noted. so I added sudo but still.. 



sorry for being such a noob. Thx for being so patient.

ah yes, my dyslexia triumphant again. this is why i can't do programming well. I just need to network my ubuntu then i won't bother you guys anymore .

here's the latest scoop, broken packages?!?

remember last time samba4 uninstalled ur samba2.3? its time for u to go back to 2.3, winbind seems to depend on samba-common. u can try sudo apt-get install samba

if that doesnt work, try change samba to samba-common

by the way, i didnt study computer science...i studied psychology

ok, changing back to samba 2.3 now. For the record do I need to restart my computer anytime i install a new package?

winbind is now install. now the problem is i can't edit /etc/nsswitch.conf: permission denied. how can i get the permission to edit that file?

ok. So the next step.
What code should i enter to do this?
ps: I've already did sudo gedit /smb.conf  it only opens an empty page.

how sad looks like the blind leading the blind

by default u should not need to install anything else to access a samba share

on gnome, use the start menu -> connect to server

or command line #sudo mount -t cifs -o "username=xxx,password=yyy" //192.168.1.2/sharedfolder /mnt
