I am running redhat 6.0 and samba 2.0.3. Apps are executed by the w/s but datafiles and databases are stored on the linux server. Occasionally *all* of my workstations freeze up, or are unable to see the info on the server anymore. The drive mappings still exist, I can browse the drives, but the app won't run on any workstation. So far, the only way to clear this has been to reboot the server, since samba still thinks that the w/s have the database files open, even though the w/s has exited the app. I know this is a bit sketchy, but it's all new to me..... Any help or pointers would be great.
Anyone seen any problems with SP6? I just upgraded from SP4 on a workshtation and now can't see Samba servers in the browse list or connect to them even using a fully sepcified UNC from command line. Server is juts not detected. Win 95 and MAC+Dave boxes carry on working fine and can mount shares of NT workstation box with SP6 on. Summary config of samba servers: Samba 2.0.5a on Slakware Linux. Using encrypted passwords, WINS support. No PDC (running as workgroup). malcolm ----------------------------------------------------------------- Visit our Internet site at http://www.reuters.com Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the sender specifically states them to be the views of Reuters Ltd.
