During TEST 3 of /usr/local/samba/doc/samba/docs/textdocs/DIAGNOSIS.txt , "Run the command "smbclient -L BIGSERVER" on the unix box. You should get a list of available shares back", no password is required and I get a "session request failed" with "called name not present" : added interface ip=x.x.x.x bcast=x.x.x.x nmask=x.x.x.x session request to BIGSERVER failed (Called name not present) session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Called name not present) I start smbd and nmbd as daemons and netbios-ssn port is in a LISTEN state using "netstat -a". I have directories where samba keeps its log and lock files (/var/samba/locks and /var/samba/logs) Thank you for some help .
