I'm new with Linux and NT (been Solaris and HP all my life) but I figured this may be a more of a Samba issue on NT. After I was done installing Samba 2.0.7 on RH Linux, and run `smbclient -L <server=samba>`, it showed these: [root@samba /root]# smbclient -L samba added interface ip=146.152.82.83 bcast=146.152.82.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 added interface ip=127.0.0.1 bcast=127.0.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Broken pipe. session request to SAMBA failed (code 0) read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Broken pipe. session request to *SMBSERVER failed (code 0) [root@samba /root] The log.smb showed: [2001/02/27 11:35:00, 1] smbd/server.c:main(641) smbd version 2.0.7 started.
