i am not able to connect to a windows machine in my home..
workgroup is the same , and subnet mask is also the same...
tried smb://windowzmachine ip/shared folder
it asks for the user name and password but gives some error after that..either it cant read some info or cant find some object..
i tried to see if my samba is running..by the command..
smbclient -U% -L localhost
it said connection failed local host not found...
i remember earlier it used to give me a whole list of all computers in my home..
any clues anyone
thanks
