Hello Samba list users,
I am new to this and am having problems running Samba on Red Hat Linux
7.3 on Dell PC's. I cannot consistently "see" the Samba shares on
my
PC's. Most of the time I get the error "Not a valid folder ...."
when
trying to "add to my network places". I have succeeded at times from
different PC's but right now none can access.
Samba was loaded by the previous sysadmin as part of the normal software
from the RH cd's on all my machines. I first got it running on my Linux
workstation to check it out. I could see the server shares /home and
/project2/data which were mounted to my workstation from the server and
I have SWAT running through Gnome okay on the workstation. When I tried
running SWAT through Gnome on the server it won't start. So I copied the
Samba password file from the workstation to the server and that worked
for a while.
Now after running a short while I can't get to either from any PC. Can
someone suggest some areas to check please? I have tried both adding to
my network places and mapping a drive.
