I had to buy a new computer and it came with Windoze 7 Home Premium
version on it. I connected it to the internet last evening and most
things worked immediately. I have shared files on a SAMBA server that
I'm not able to access from the new machine. All my searches on the
internet suggest changes to the 'local security policy' editor, but Win7
Home Premium doesn't have that on it....so how can I get my computer to
connect up to the SAMBA Server.
I am able to 'see' the SAMBA server in "My Computer", but when I click
on it it asks for a userid and pswd. Under XP and Linux there were
none. Any suggestions on which why to progress would be greatly
appreciated.
