Hi,> I am trying to install a samba server and browse it through a win2000
>machine.Since it is in testing stage now ,i have removed all security
>features.There is already a wide area network and i am trying to install my
>samba server in it.So that i can browse samba server through other win
>machines.Do i need a special permission from windows administrator for
>it.Does he(win administrator) need to allow my samba server machine into
>the win network.
>The problem is, I can see my samba server but cannot browse it.
>I went through the samba diagnostic list.At the stage of nmblookup,the
>diagnostic fails.There is a router or a machine somewhere in the windows
>network(with a specific IP) were all other windows systems are
>registered.The namblookupo goes there and finds all( windows) machines but
>cannot find my samba machine.(I used nmblookup -d 2'*' command for
it).In
>the win machine's lmhosts and hosts files i have put the samba
server's IP
>and name.Thanking you.
