information:
192.168.0.0->unknown (Do you know what this is)
192.168.0.1-> modem configuration
windows box-> 192.168.0.2
ubuntu box->192.168.0.3
mint box-> 192.168.0.4 (wifi)
mint box-> 192.168.0.5 (eth0)

There is a slight problem: If I am on the Ubuntu computer and open a terminal and enter
     nautilus <windows box>
it will happily do so. I can even open documents up and print them if I want. But, if I try to open the windows computer from the mint box an error message appears that says, 'Could not find "/home/bmike1/192.168.0.2".'  Then I thought making it 'http://192.168.0.2' might help  but a different error appears. This saying:
     ''Could not find 'http://192.168.0.2'.
     "Error: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a
     "reply.... (I'm sure you know the rest of this error msg)"
I get this same error if I try to open the ubuntu machine from Mint.
In the nautilus window (under Network) is the selection to 'Browse Network'. If I select that I expect everything on my network that can be browsed to be listed. Sure enough when I open it  I see 'Windows Network' but when I select that I don't see 'my documents' (which I open to  after entering 'nautilus 192.168.0.2) but rather MS HOME and WORKGROUP. If I select MSHOME a window appears saying 'Opening MSHOME. You can stop this operation by clicking cancel'. Then another error pops up saying, 'Unable to mount location. Failed to receive share list from server.' If I select WORKGROUP the same previous two errors appear.

If I am on the Ubuntu box and enter  [code]nautilus <mint box> [/code]the nautilus window appears with a network folder with the title 'print$'. What is this?
You know.... I just edited the second MSHOME error and I realize that I think that is telling me my problem. It is not seeing the share list. So I just figured out how to share folders.  So I share a directory but when I open nautilus on another computer  the folder isn't in the Browse Network folder.

so I just figured out a big goof! I named my home directory the same as my user name. the computer doesn't like that and neither does nautilus! I tried changing it back from the command line but when I do nautilus looks for the original name.
So what can I do to fix this?

the smbtree on the laptop is exactly the same.

Someone may have answered this, or you might have mentioned it, but do you have Samba for box trying & failing to browse the windows machine?

I got the two linux boxes printing and the ubuntu can browse both the lap top and MS. the problems I'm having is getting the laptop to  browsethe other two machines and getting the the windows machine to see the printer. when I try to access either machine from the laptop I get a 'Could not display....' error. I think I know what my problem is with the laptop..... it can not see the shared folder of the ubuntu machine. Where is this folder? I don't know about the MS issue.
