First of all, I read some posts, so I know what this share is for. I have two supposedly identical Samba servers on different Linux machines. They're both 2.2.0 because that's what came with the distribution. On one, the IPC$ share is constantly connected, but on the other, it isn't (so far at least). What triggers this share to connect? Both machines are in the same NT domain, and security seems to be working properly, as near as I can tell. Thanks.
Hi All, Can anyone pls tell me What is the IPC$ share and what is it supposed to do? On WIndows it's the "Inter Process Comm" share if not mistaken and it's supposed to be the 1st thing transferred during any communication. What is it's usage for samba? How come some users have to connect to IPC$ but some dont? Cheers, Mun Heng, Ow H/M Engineering Western Digital M'sia DID : 03-7870 5168
