I have installed RH9 and Samba on two PCs. One is working fine but other
has some problem with Samba. Could somebody help ? I am new to Linux and
don't know what is going on.
Here is the symptom. I have three PCs on a same workgroup. A (win2k),
B(RH9) and C(RH9). Samba service is installed on both B and C. I shared
"home/share" directory on both B and C.
>From A(win2k), I can see all A(self), B(RH9) and C(RH9) in a same workgroup
when I select "Computer Near by Me". I can open B(RH9) and browse
the
shared directory, but when I try to open C(RH9), I always get an error "\\C
is not accessible. The network path was not found."
>From B(RH9), I can see all A(win2k), B(self) and C(RH9) from "Network
Servers". I can browse A(win2k), but not C(RH9). When I execute a
command "smbclient -U% -L localhost", I see all three machines, A,
B, C
in the Server list and usually C as Master.
>From C(RH9), I see all A(win2k), B(RH9) and C(self) and browse all machines.
However,
when I execute a command "smbclient -U% -L localhost", I see only
"C" in
the server list and C as Master. I don't see A, B in the Server list.
I compared the /etc/samba/smb.conf files on B and C, but I didn't see any
difference.
As far as I know, I configured both machines in the same way.
smbd and nmbd running on both B and C.
Login name and password are the same on all three machines.
I can ping all machines from any machine without problem.
Only difference I noticed is that Samba on B is 2.2.7a and Samba on C is
2.2.7a-security-rollup-fix.
On C, the smbd.log file at /var/log/sama has many errors(? )
"Failed to setup RT_SIGNAL_LEASE handler"
I don't know what this means.
But I don't see this error in B's smbd.log file.
Can somebody tell what is going on ? Any idea how to fix the problem with
C ?
TIA
