ee the list<br> of all the windows machines and the one Linux Box I've set up with Samba.<br> Yet when I try "net view \\LINUXBOX" I get the no-soup-for-you message:<br> "System error 5 has occurred."<br> "Access is denied."<br> <br> I don't remember setting up any password files for this installation of<br> Samba, and there was no previous installations. Either I missed it in the<br> documentation or no samba password file is required for simple operation?<br> <br> The accounts on the linux and windows boxes I'm trying to establish<br> connections between have the same username and password.<br> <br> I downloaded the 2.2.7a tar ball, compiled and installed with all the<br> default parameters on a "Core" linux distribution without any trouble or<br> wanring messages.<br> <br> Next to nothing is running on the Linux machine. At first login, my bash PID<br> is in the mid 40's. AFAIK no firewall is in operation: though I'd be up for<br> confirming this. Information about the basic setup of the Linux box is<br> here: http://members.rogers.com/riskweb3/Linux/ibm=5Flinux=5Fbox=5Finfo.html, the<br> only notable error is that the Linux Box uses a static IP address, outside<br> the range of the DHCP server.<br> <br> I can post the log files if any wishes, and here is the smb.conf file:<br> [global]<br> netbios name =3D LINUXBOX<br> workgroup =3D WORKGROUP<br> log level =3D 2<br> log file =3D /usr/local/samba/var/samba.log<br> server string =3D "IBM Box in the server room"<br> security =3D user<br> <br> [public]<br> path =3D /home/risk<br> browseable =3D yes<br> guest ok =3D yes<br> read only =3D no<br> <br> [risk]<br> path =3D /home/risk<br> browseable =3D yes<br> guest ok =3D yes<br> read only =3D no<br> <br> Help?<br> - Jamie<br> <br> <br> <br> --<br> To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the<br> instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba<br> </font> <br> <br> --=_alternative 0061972F0A256CAD_=--
