Have installed Samba 2.2.7-4 on a AIX 5.2 box as server.
Can sought of connect to Samba server from Windows boxes, (still plenty of
access denied and password errors) to the point where I can copy files off
the AIX Samba server into XP, W2k and W98 clients. Still working on W95,
WFWG and DOS boxes.

Two areas mystify me where I just cannot get off the ground.

(1) To set up an AIX 5.3 and AIX 4.3 box as clients, ( which I presume would
be the same for Solaris and BSD boxes ) to copy files off the AIX 5.2 Samba
Server, do I install Samba Client and Samba Common 2.2.7-4 off the IBM
website onto the 5.3 and 4.3 boxes. What procedure is used on the AIX
clients to get files off the server ie a sought of Windows Explorer setup.

(2) What is the procedure for a AIX Samba Server to get files off a Windows
Client. I tried to push files from the Windows client to the Server but it
did not like the idea. Just kept getting permission denied even using the
directory Windows used to get files off the server.

This is all happening on a P2P Workgroup Lan where everyone can ping
everyone else.

Read heaps of articles but found nothing to get me started.

Sorry to take you back into the dark ages.

Thanks
