the original message looks like it was corrupted when it got to the list, so
here's another try ...

Subject: nmbd help please
I've been working on this for about a week now and can't seem to figure
out the magic configuration that will make my Samba server work. I've gone
through all the tests in DIAGNOSIS.txt. I'm running Sambe 2.2.6 on Redhat 8
and trying to get it to work on a home network with two Win XP machines.
smbclient works both to the local Samba server and to any of the XP boxes.
nmblookup -B SambaServer '*' works
when I try nmblookup -d 2 '*' it sees both the XP machines but not
SambaServer.
SambaServer shows up in Network Neighborhood but when you access it, after
several seconds, you get, "No service is operating at the destination
network endpoint on the remote system"
also when I try a net view or net use from a windows client, it gives me the
same error, along with the useful number, system error 1234..
the nmbd process is running and works locally.
i've tried everything suggested in the docs short of adding more debug to
the nmbd source.
some relevant smb.conf settings are:
[global]
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 192.168.2. 127.
security = user
password level = 128
username level = 128
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
local master = yes
os level = 255
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = yes
writable = yes
Thanks in advance for any help!!!
best regards,
