I tried "West Kent"; no difference. So I figured to make things simpler; I
built an NT account for "Bubba" and logged in as him from my Linux box.
Again, Linux/Samba reports that I am logged in as guest and I don't have
the access I should have.
BTW, I'm fairly new to internet/Linux-speak; what's "IIRC"? (Sorry for my
ignorance.)
Thanks.
