With WinXP host, RH8 VMware guest, at level 3, I issue: mount -t smbfs -o user,noauto,dmask=777,fmask=777,username=xx, password=yy //DELLBOX/linuxShare /mnt/linuxShare and get: Connection to DELLBOX failed SMB connection failed timeout connecting to 192.168.113.1:139 Error connecting to 192.168.113.1 I cannot find this IP address anywhere. My tables indicate that port 139 is related to NETBIOS, but I don't know how to deal with this. Where is this NETBIOS, and how is it controlled? I note that the box in question is not using 192.168. type IP addresses. Suggestions would be much appreciated. Mike.
Yuo not write how configured is wmvare networking and what is DELLBOX. RH8 resolve it as 192.168.113.1 and try to this ip connect as samba client. timeout say what this ip addres not exist or not provide microsoft or samba file share networking. First you need proper config for winxp tcpip and wmvare virtual net adapter, second this is reflect in RH eth0 config. And last if you use smbmount you need create smb.conf with proper settings...

In short samba is not running, if it is a Linux host, or some important service is not running on it, if it is a WinDoze box. ____________________________________________________________ Get advanced SPAM filtering on Webmail or POP Mail ...

| DELLBOX is resolved by a local name server, but not | to 192.168.113.1. This number appears nowhere that I | know of, and I cannot find it in any RH8 files. The address might be the self-assigned address after your VMWare virtual host failed to obtain proper network configuration from a live DHCP server. | What is vmware virtual net? Did it come with my | vmware? The ability to have a second IP address exclusively for the use of your VMWare virtual host. Your Linux host's NIC gets a second IP address which is then used only by the virutal host. ____________________________________________________________ Get advanced SPAM filtering on Webmail or POP Mail ...
