Can anyone out there tell me how to configure samba on the freebsd 2.1 and
how to configure dos (not wfw nor w95, just wc-dog) clients to map a drive
(e.g. J:) to an exported dir on the unix?
Actually my smb.conf is this:

--------
[Global]
   config file =3D /usr/local/samba/smb.conf.%m
   status =3D yes
   security =3D share
   server string =3D Core (%v,%h)
   load printers =3D yes
   log level =3D 1
   log file =3D /var/log/samba.log
;   hosts allow =3D 194.135.250.0/255.255.255.0 localhost=20
   auto services =3D homes printers tmp server
   read prediction =3D yes
   valid chars =3D =F6:=D6 =E5:=C5 =E4:=C4=20
   share modes =3D yes
   locking =3D yes
   strict locking =3D yes
   keepalive =3D 30
   passwd program =3D /sbin/passwd %u
   workgroup =3D WORKGROUP
   getwd cache =3D yes
   printing =3D 1

[homes]
	comment =3D This is your home dir
	writable =3D yes
	browseable =3D no

[printers]
	printable =3D yes
	writable =3D no
	path =3D /tmp
	guest ok =3D yes
	print ok =3D yes=20
	browseable =3D no

[tmp]
	comment =3D Clearing each night
	writable =3D yes
	public=3Dtrue=09
	path=3D/tmp
	browseable =3D yes

[server]=20
	comment =3D Our online archive
	writable =3D yes
	public=3Dtrue=09
	path=3D/usr/export
	browseable =3D yes

--------

 How do I launch the smbd? At present I do it by hand issuing a
/usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -s /usr/local/samba/smb.conf

 the major problem is the configuration of the clients: I do not know where
to start from, which packages do I need, how to configure them. Some people
gave me general guidelines, but as I'm starting from scatch practical
exapmles are welcome as well! :-)

Thanks guys!

Ciao!
