Hi, I hope somebody could help me, I am using samba 2.2.0 on Linux Debian 2.2rev2, kernel 2.4.3 It is acting as PDC. If I open winword97 from a win98 pc and try to save a file on the samba server I encounter no problem, if I try to do the same from a WinNT4 PC, winword97 complains it is not able to open the shared resource //romeo/utenti, which is not accessible. if I look at the log I find (this is a small part of it): [2001/04/24 17:23:50, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2qfilepathinfo(1355) call_trans2qfilepathinfo: TRANSACT2_QPATHINFO: level = 257 [2001/04/24 17:23:50, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(384) unix_clean_name [/utenti/stefano/Documenti/congressi/WINSPOOL.DRV] [2001/04/24 17:23:50, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(384) unix_clean_name [utenti/stefano/Documenti/congressi/WINSPOOL.DRV] [2001/04/24 17:23:50, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2qfilepathinfo(1365) fileinfo of utenti/stefano/Documenti/congressi/WINSPOOL.DRV failed (No such fi le or directory) [2001/04/24 17:23:50, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(123) error string = No such file or directory [2001/04/24 17:23:50, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(141) error packet at line 1371 cmd=50 (SMBtrans2) eclass=1 ecode=2 [2001/04/24 17:23:50, 3] smbd/process.c:process_smb(831) this is my smb.conf any idea?
