I'm pulling my hair out over this. I replaced an NT4 box with a Red Hat
8 box running samba-2.2.7-5.8.0. I've got various Windows boxes
throughout the district. I've got a 2000 Adv. Server box that can see
the samba share fine. I'm not trying to get a new Dell box running 2000
Pro to see it. Nothing. I first tried with only TCP/IP, then added
NetBEUI, but the same. I run "net view \\server", and I get a
"System
error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found". For the heck
of it, here's my smb.conf:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0)
# Date: 2003/03/31 13:54:59
# Global parameters

I'm open to anything here. All the 98 machines work fine, and the 2000
Adv. Server box works fine. It's just this new 2000 Pro box that's not
cooperating.
Thanks!
