Hello all, I am having some strange problems with W2K boxes connecting to a particular installation of samba 2.0.7. NT4 clients can connect to this machine just fine, but W2K clients eventually get the message: "\\SHARENAME is not accessible. The specified network name is no longer available." The machine in question is a HP C160 workstation, running HPUX 10.20. What makes this problem even stranger is that another HP box also running HPUX 10.20 works just fine with W2K connections (this was tried with both 2.0.6 and 2.0.7). I have simplified the smb.conf file down, it is basicly the same as the working HP box only with more logging turned on. Following the diagnostic procedures, it fails on test 8 from the W2K box. Below are excerpts from both the smb.conf file and the relevant portion of the log.smb file. I hope someone can shed some light on this perplexing situation. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
