Linux-Noob Forums

Hello Glad I found this site.I'm pretty new to Linux I've been using it for about a week now.Well heres my problem.When I first installed Linux it was SuSE Personal 9.1 and when I would go to my networking I could access my WinXP pc.I have 2 pcs and the one I'm trying to get on is more of a back up for me to keep files on.Well now I've installed SuSE 9.2 Pro since it has most of the packages I wanted.I can see the Sabma installed and I go to netowrking and see the windows icon but when I try to enter it tells me it can't find the workgroup I'm trying to connect to.How can I go about getting this going again??

 

SuSE linux is on the following

Pent 4 2.0 gig hrz

512 ram

Nvida mx400 agp 64 megs ram

40 gig maxtor hd

sound blaster audigy sound card

 

the WinXP is

 

pent 4 1.6 gig hrz

256 ram

nvida pci mx400 32 megs ram

20 gig hard drive

on board sound

 

Also I am connect using a Belkin router.

 

Thanks.

I got it going seems that the samba server didnt have access in the firewall.I'm sure I'll be hack though I've found alot of helpful info on these forums.
