Pulling up the status page takes forever in swat. When it does come up, nmbd and smbd are reported as running, but there are no active connections, shares, files. You guessed it, there's something wrong. Every time I try to map a network drive from windows 2000 to the samba share, I the following error: "The semaphore timeout period has expired". Where do you suggest I look first? TIA Vipin Khushu 781-794 8800 x244 -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
