ok, I'll check but i'm not sure it makes a difference bcoz it works for all other shares. Why not for linux. And its really bad that the system is restarting when I tried to connect.

use Google always. it contains lot of guides regarding smb and other linux things. but when you are searching , use the correct linux distro and version.
good luck

the open source worls is a very diverse one. there are zillion distros out there and they serves defferent purposes. if you are looking for something that 'works out of the box' give a try to ubuntu. it have a good reputation of been a easy to use distro.

IMHO learning linux is not very hard. it is very simple and modular. and most of the stuff is very documented. linux S/Ws follow the 'KISS' - keep it simple stupid principal most of the time. everything is organized in config files. you can open them and edit them to your needs. but this is of course can be done using GUIs etc etc...

give ubuntu a try you might like it. and in the samba config, did you set the correct workgroup? it might me causing this. hard to say cause windows almost crash for nothing (just kidding hehe)
