[KLUG Members] Continuing the Samba dance - Part 3 Sharing files

[Richard Zimmerman]

   Give it some time (read 15-20 minutes)... Netbuie M$ protocol is one 
of those announce 'Hi I'm Here' kind of things.. It sometimes takes a 
little while before the server / shares show up again.  The writeable = 
yws only affect the permission to write to the share, not the ability of 
Samba to re-sync to the local M$ network.
