teacher Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 DeLsTeRWelcome to the forum. I have never tried to allow anyone to connect to my computer. That said, I would look in two different places. 1. Go into the Mandrake Control Center (It should be on your menu under configuration) and take a look at firewall. Make sure you don't have that turned on.2. I suspect you need to set up sometime of Samba - server connection settings. Since I don't share my computer I have not played with this.Someone will probably be along shortly that does play with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Hi DeLsTeRI think it is a firewall problem too . . . did you activate the "shorewall" firewall ? Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeLsTeR Posted October 16, 2005 Author Share Posted October 16, 2005 ok and i have 1 more question before i go i have another computer which is running windows how can i make it connect to linux and get the i-net connection from it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 You will have to set up Samba on the Linux computer and make a mdkgoup for sharing on the Windows one.But since I do not have any windows computer I am not really a Samba expert so I will have to let others give you guiding on that one. ( There is a samba wizard in the MCC though )Maybe start a new topic with clearly the word "Samba" in the title . . and the experts will sure show up ;) Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeLsTeR Posted October 16, 2005 Author Share Posted October 16, 2005 thanks will try that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Hi DeLWhen I go to http://cs.miracle.lv/ I see a page with this text: This site is powered by: Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/2.0.50 (Mandrakelinux/7mdk) mod_perl/1.99_16 Perl/v5.8.5 mod_ssl/2.0.50 OpenSSL/0.9.7d PHP/4.3.8! Note: If you are seeing this instead of the webpage you expected, it's most likely because the server is not yet fully configured, or is under an upgrade. Come again tomorrow and your usual content should be back.BUT also this: Congratulations! The Web Server software on this system is operational.
