this is the name, which should appear when i try to see my Box, right?
but what Protocol does it use? (windoze box i mean) TCP IP i suppose right?
but still i added IP of my Linux to Wins, DNS and stuff, however that
Windoze coffin can't recognize me:((( even tho. it pings my ip, but can't
figure me out by name, and when i do net view, it doesn't show me as well..
i passed all the tests from diagnosis 1--7 just fine.. and stoped
at 8 which requres the part of that box, and can't move any further.. any
ideas?:(
