I set up a samba server which can be connected to be other linux boxes.
Everything works great when I connect through a linux machine, but when
I try connecting through my WinXP (sp1) box I cannot connect to the
samba server. The XP box gives me a "system error 53 has occured. The
network path was not found." So I was curious if my linux box was even
responding to my window computer. so I turned on tcp dump and tried to
access the server. This is what I get:
02:33:18.072576 192.168.1.2.1828 > 192.168.1.50.445: S [tcp sum ok]
564739778:564739778(0) win 64240 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK> (DF) (ttl
128, id 19947, len 48)
02:33:18.072599 192.168.1.50.445 > 192.168.1.2.1828: R [tcp sum ok]
0:0(0) ack 1 win 0 (DF) (ttl 64, id 0, len 40)
I find that kinda strange since samba is listening on port 139 and my
windows box is trying to connect to port 445. I checked the log file
and i's still just sitting there waiting for a connection.
Other than that, I'm stumped. Anyone have an idea?
Thanks,
