hi all. installed samba to get in LAN two archlinux pc by a router adsl.
I configured smb.conf on pc 1 as follow:

#Global Parameters

netbios name = pc fisso
#encrypt passwords = no

[dati]
comment = arch dati
path = /home/du/prova
guest ok = yes
read only = no
browseable = no
public = yes

but when i try to access from pc2 to pc1 browsing the network with nautilus i can't see any remote pc...why?
The first time i installed and configured samba i could see the remote pc, but from next reboot it disappear :?:

Re: samba problems..can't see remote pc in network

i discovered a little strange thing...i can see remote pc only after 30-40 minutes after i booted the server machine, so it is not random, why this?
