Is this a samba problem or soemthing else: No logon server available
Hi, Sorry to add to your no doubt ever expanding emails. I have tried the mailing list and the irc but no one is answering me so I am guessing this is either a very stupid error by me or no one knows what is happening. Using Samba 2.0.9 on FreeBSD4.3 as a Domain Server. All clients can logon fine to the server running samba and logon batch files are all run fine. Before the problem all Printer and Drive sharing worked fine, something changed at some time, I do not know when exactly. I really just want to get you to say whether it is a samba problem or not, If not I can look elsewhere:-) The problem is when I browse the network neighboorhood on a client machine to effectively connect a client to another machines shared printer or shared drive, I get the error message:- \\Machine is not accessible There are currently no logon servers avialable to service the logon request Now I did notice that I had user level access on but when I changed back to shared level access the problem is still there. Here is the relevent parts of the smb.conf, not sure if something is missing:- [global] workgroup = HINWICK server string = Samba Server V%v ON %h hosts allow = 10. 127. 158.152.173.142 log file = /usr/local/logs/samba/log.%m debug level = 1 max log size = 250 security = user netbios name = dorisday socket options = TCP_NODELAY interfaces = 10.1.129.250/16 bind interfaces only = yes browse list = Yes domain master = Yes domain logons = Yes local master = Yes preferred master = Yes os level = 65 logon script = scripts\%U.bat logon path = "\\%L\Profiles\%U" logon home = "\\%L\Profiles\%U" wins support = Yes dns proxy = Yes Although I have wins support as Yes, no clients have any wins servers specified. I do hope this is not it because I will get really confused since we have never had the clients configured to a wins server. Here is the last part of of the nmb log:- Samba server DORISDAY is now a domain master browser for workgroup HINWICK on subnet UNICAST_SUBNET ***** [2001/10/10 10:02:01, 0] nmbd/nmbd_become_dmb.c:become_domain_master_browser_bcast(293) become_domain_master_browser_bcast: Attempting to become domain master browser on workgroup HINWICK on subnet 10.1.129.250 [2001/10/10 10:02:01, 0] nmbd/nmbd_become_dmb.c:become_domain_master_browser_bcast(307) become_domain_master_browser_bcast: querying subnet 10.1.129.250 for domain master browser on workgroup HINWICK [2001/10/10 10:02:06, 0] nmbd/nmbd_logonnames.c:become_logon_server_success(117) become_logon_server_success: Samba is now a logon server for workgroup HINWICK on subnet 10.1.129.250 [2001/10/10 10:02:10, 0] nmbd/nmbd_become_dmb.c:become_domain_master_stage2(117) ***** Samba server DORISDAY is now a domain master browser for workgroup HINWICK on subnet 10.1.129.250 ***** [2001/10/10 10:02:24, 0] nmbd/nmbd_become_lmb.c:become_local_master_stage2(405) ***** Samba name server DORISDAY is now a local master browser for workgroup HINWICK on subnet 10.1.129.250 ***** Can anyone shed any light on my problem?
