Hello, samba In my net (with samba installed) all works well, but I want windows users to authenthicate in my samba server. And I have tried a lot of things, without result. If anybody using it could send me his (or her) smb.conf file, I would be pleased. Thanks angel
We defenetly need some more info. I use samba as a pdc in a win95 network which work's fine. This you read the docs on this one? RIes
Hi, everybody I've just got this problem. On my network I have one SQL Server DATABASE running in my NT Server. This is not a PDC, just a SQL Server. I'm trying to set up a Domain Control using SAMBA server which is runnig in my Linux RH 7.3 BOX. So the problem is: I need to use name resolution, like WINS. Because my windowdos 98 clients find the DATABASE server by name, as well as another machines on my network. How can it be done, using just LINUX ??? Do I need to use any another application as DNS or BIND, or just SAMBA can solve my problem???

hi! i have a problem with the name resolution: the samba server is visible to all windows clients in the network neighborhood. and i also can access to shares on the server without any problems. but if i do the following: echo "test" | smbclient -M workstation01 the answer is: added interface ip=192.168.0.1 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Cannot resolve name workstation01#0x3 when i use the ip adress instead of "workstation01" i get: added interface ip=192.168.0.1 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 session request failed i also have a bind9 dns server on my server running. when i try a dns lookup via nslookup it works in both directions. what i do wrong? i don't want to use the lmhosts or hosts file because i do not want to update the files when there is somthing changing in the local network. leo

That's my setting which works. ____________________________________________________________ Get advanced SPAM filtering on Webmail or POP Mail ...
