Hi all: I have setup a RedHat Linux 7.3 server, compiled SAMBA v. 2.2.5 to use LDAP. I have my smb.conf files set up to become a PDC. My PDC talks to my LDAP Directory Server, but I am having some problems with the domain logon feature. I have a Win98 box (this PC and my linux server are on the same subnet) configured to log into my domain, using a WINS server (which happens to be the same IP address as my PDC). I am using Ethereal to track the network connections, and I am getting 'destination unavailable, port 137 is unavailable'. When I try to connect to this port, I am getting a 'Connection refused' message (apparently this port is locked by some other process'. I am checked M$ website, but nothing has helped. Does anyone know how to check to see what process is locking the port 137 (this port is the netbios-ns service, by the way)? Any assistance would be appreciated. I have attached my smb.conf files for reference. -- Regards, Richard Canada Assistant Computer Systems Manager Medical Research Laboratories International, USA richard.canada@mrli.ppdi.com ______________________________________________________________________ This email transmission and any documents, files or previous email messages attached to it may contain information that is confidential or legally privileged.
