i have a PC installed Linux 2.0.30. And i am now trying to connect it to a NT 4.0 server. i have installed a samba-1.9.17p2 on my Linux machine, it can connect Win95 and worked very well. Also from the Linux, using "smbclient -L", i can see the NT box directly and can log on through shared name. but from NT box, i cann't find my linux, it is always said "the netpath cannot be found", i have done everything as diagnose.txt, but it still cannot work. and also i have enabled plaintext password login from NT by making a change to the NT registry. Also i can use smbclient -L localhost on the linux box to view its own shares. so now i am really lost. Could u give me some advice? i will really appreciate it. yang
>Could u give me some advice? i will really appreciate it.Samba/Linux 2.0.32/33 and NT 4.0 (without and with SP3) work fine for me. Some pitfalls: 1) Did you start the nmbd Daemon on the Linux Box? 2) Do you use an ISA Ethernet Card on you NT Box? If yes: Forget it (probably). I had hangers all the time while accessing the network drive until I switched to a PCI card (maybe just the P5/90 was to slow with the ISA card and NT 4).
