samba and seeing win2k shared folders
We have a win2k server that has three shares available. All three can be seen by OS 9 machines through appletalk. All three can be seen by OS X machines through appletalk. I can only see two of the three shares through SAMBA on our OS X machines.
Unfortunately, I don't have access to the server to play around with it, but would anyone have suggestions as to why I can't see the third share?
The share sizes are: ~40GB, ~100GB, ~5GB.
I can't see the ~100GB (reported as 93.1GB in win2k)
thanks!

Are you using 10.2.4?
ASKER
Yes, I'm running 10.2.4. I figured it out with the help of a team member. Apparently, SAMBA will not recognize share names larger than 12 characters. Spaces are okay. We changed our share name to <= 12 and it worked fine.
