Hi If I add a specific machine to my hosts allow list in the global section of my smb.conf, then that machine can access any of the shares on that server. If I only add the machine to a hosts allow list in a specific share, when I try and connect to that share from that machine I get an error : 'Specified computer did not recieve your request' and in log.smb : 'Connection denied from <IP aaddress>' Is this meant to happen ? (testparm says the machine is allowed to connect to the single share.) I'm running Samba Samba version 1.9.18p7 on Solaris 2.4 Janet ************************************************************************* Janet Dickson | http://www.bioss.sari.ac.uk/~janet Biomathematics & Statistics Scotland | email: janet@bioss.sari.ac.uk The King's Buildings, Mayfield Rd | Telephone: +44 (0) 131 650 4888 Edinburgh EH9 3JZ, Scotland, UK. | Fax: +44 (0) 131 650 4901 *************************************************************************

I think all you have to write this line in smb.conf in [global] section. it might be there already, just uncomment. allow hosts = All ************************* Hafiz Shahid Umar System Administrator Informatics.
