Hi, I have a problem, kindly help me. I had installed Samba 2.0.7 in a Solaris 8 server in a windows NT worgroup setup and in the smb.conf file had shared individually all the folders. It was working fine. Now we have converted out NT systems to Domain setup. Now I tried to point samba validations to the NT PDC. It was not working properly. Then I totally uninstalled, deleted all the folders and reinstalled samba. Now I removed all the individual shares and shared the Home folder. And I configured for NT Domain validation. Now it is working correctly. The problem is when we open the system in Network Neighborhood it is showing 2 shares with different names (but pointing to the same folder) whereas I have specified only one share in the smb.conf file. Can anyone tell me from where it is taking the other share details. I tested the smb.conf file with testparm command and it is specifying only the share that is in the smb.conf file. I would be very thankful if helped.

Hi, Shares are only declared in smb.conf. Post your smb.conf so anyone can help you better. cheers Gustavo> -----Original Message----- > From: Ravishankar S.

Hi, Thanks a lot for your reply. I am attaching the smb.conf file. Actually it is showing 2 shares (one is the "home" share declared in smb.conf file and another folder with the respective netbios username but pointing to the same path, but not declared in the smb.conf file). Since both are pointing to the same path I would like to remove the username share. Kindly suggest how to sort it out.
