Guy: I need help bad, and fast :( I've installed mandrake 7.2 at work (a sheriff's office/jail) and samba 2.0.7. I have a 100mb switched network, and all my workstations run win98. I have created my shares etc, and when I started bring on other client win98 m/c on the net I noticed an error basically saying that my password is incorrect or I have no acces to the doiman. The password I'm using is correct since sometimes it does logon and work great. Sometimes it acts like only 1 person can logon at a time to the samba server etc. testparm runs fine... I then removed all my shares, but still get the same result. I have used the smbstatus command and seen that sometimes it says that it can't creat an IPC area... I also see shared mem shm_mem (something like that) problems in the log.smb file. Anything that comes to mind, please let me know, I really nned to resolve this fast since I've moved data to the server that serves jail info... Please help thanks chamath -- Best Regards, Chamath. _________________________________________________________________________ The Net; email: cnw1@ra.msstate.edu, web: http://www2.msstate.edu/~cnw1 Land Lines: 662-324-5833 home / 662-325-2089 work / 662-325-3299 work fax "...[I'm a person,] who likes an atmosphere as restful as an undiscovered tomb." -- Henry Higgins; My Fair Lady.
