Re: Accessing a SAMBA server via the QNTC file system

Have you tried creating the host entry in QNTC manually? Not sure if that would make any difference, but I *assume* that QNTC only populates shares that WINS knows about. I wonder if a SAMBA share would even try to register itself to WINS.....

When I last set up a Linux machine with Samba (it's been a while), there was a config option about whether or not to register with WINS.
