yordan 10 Report post Posted September 3, 2012 Have a look at the guest's machine username and permissions.Also, see if you can share a folder on the XP machine and see it from the Linux samba. Use the fully command line syntax, where you type the XP machine name, the share name, the username and the password. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
