You can try to use this utility: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ as Ebox is based on Ubuntu  8.04 it should work

Topis explains itself. I want to log to all shares ( inc. user home folders ) through windows networking. ( in order to make backup of all files on windows machine )

Thank You for this advice. I modified only samba.conf file.

Finally made it work. The file name is: smb.conf.mas

Hello,
I am rather fresh linux user, so please be patient ;)
I am currently integrating 3 remote LANS in one VPN tunelled network using Mikrotik routers. Things are going OK.
The main problem in tunelled ethernet LANs is bad performance of Windows name resolution.
So I intend to establish a simple linux machine to act as WINS server ( to by configured along with router's DHCP server )
So my question is: how to make Ebox to act as WINS server in my network ? By far as I understood there should be put into samba.conf:
[global]
   wins support = yes
   name resolve order = wins lmhosts hosts bcast

How to do it ?
Regards

I worked it out. Now my windows network works like a charm :D
In case any1 needs that solution: You must edit samba.conf file and make shure, that following lines are present ( in case of absence: add them )

wins support = Yes
local master = Yes
os level = 99
preferred master = Yes

Byt the way: it would be great to have it in EBox admin interface as it is faiirly easy to do
