10USD via paypal to whoever figures this out


I'm at my wits end with this. I have tried FC6, fedora 7 and Ubuntu all with no success. what i want to be able to do is view a video file on a windows machine networked with my linux box. what i have is a file server running windows 2k3 and a laptop running Ubuntu. smb://artemis/ allows me to connect to my server, i can navigate to where the video is. i can see the files. i just cant play them over the network. if i copy them to my laptop then i can view them so i know that the drivers have been installed properly. the first person to help me get this fixed gets 10USD. i think the mods will allow this, i am just running out of hair. =P

What video player are you using? Try VLC

And Second (I think this might be it), check the permission's. Do you have execute permission? If not no way you can play the video. Simply do chmod +x videofile.
