I am running samba 2.2.7 on three solaris 2.8 servers. Only one of the Sun server I can not connect to and I have remove and install ver 2.2.2 and 2.2.7. The server in question I can be access with a unix server but not a Windows client. The testparm shows no problem and I put the same smb.conf on all the servers. The only one thing is different that is in the /usr/local/samba/private dir. there is no MACHINE.SID file. What action can be taken to create this fileor to fix this problem?? Thanks.
