oh edit hosts on windows box
and are u using samba in which case have u registered the windows machine on
the ofending linux box ,are u using encrypted password's ie in smb.conf
default for smb is user nobody in which case u wont see anything on this
machine unless the share has been opened by nobody ,doubt it though.
 hope this point's u in right direction.
 Your's
