I'm trying to use Samba 2.2.3a on RedHat 7.2 for a PDC and can't get
Win2k to even acknowledge that the domain exists. I am attaching my
smb.conf. the error message is: "The specified domain either does not
exist or could not be contacted"
Output of smbclient:
[root@theta samba]# smbclient -L \\theta -U bmitchel
added interface ip=192.168.1.235 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Got a positive name query response from 127.0.0.1 ( 192.168.1.235 )

Now I really would like to have 1. a real Win2K PDC to nmap to see if it listens on that address 2. the dolt at m$ who invented that bullsh** just to annoy the living shit out of anyone who wants to use samba. 3. a cross, some long spikes, thorns. bye, MH
