I am running XP Pro (not server). When I telnet in (from a Unix box), I
don't see any of the shared folders I have set up.

I'm not sure how to proceed on this.

I don't really understand what you're trying to accomplish? When you
telnet
in to a computer you end up working on that computer. Any shares on that
computer wouldn't be of use to you. If you want to share directories on
your Windoze machine with your *NIX machine, you need to have a samba
client installed and running on your *NIX machine. Then you can access
the Windoze shares just as you would from another Windoze box.


Machine A (Windows) has a folder. The folder is shared with the Workgroup.

Machine B (Windows) accesses the shared the folder as drive S:. When
logging into Machine B, and opening a command prompt its visible and
available.

Machine C (Unix) logs into machine B. the "S:" drive isn't there. Doing a
"net use" from inside the telnet session shows the shares correctly, but
shows them as unavailable.

Does that clarify it?

Yes, that clarifies what you are trying to do. I don't have an answer for
your problem, as I've never tried doing what you are trying to do. Taking a
complete stab in the dark, maybe the problem is related to how telnet
connects? It sends a clear password (quite insecure actually) to login. So
maybe with that type of login share access through encrypted passwords
aren't permitted? I really have no idea how a Windoze telnet server works.

I can use Rdesktop to access a Windoze box and can see shares on that box
when remotely logged in like this. But that sends an encrypted password for
logins.
