[Samba] No My Network Places or Net Neighborbood Icons, & /tmp log entries
Hi, I am having the following problems with Samba: 1) My server system is not immediately visible to windows machines, i.e., there is no icon in "My Network Places" XP, or in "Network Neighborhood" in 98. I am able to manually log into the system via Windows XP by doing the run command for my server name. I am also able to log in via Mac OS X, but I must also specify a directory smb://bucket/charms for example. I am unable to log in via Window 98 at all. 2) I get lots of entries in my log similar to the following: Apr 5 15:47:29 bucket smbd[3253]: [2004/04/05 15:47:29, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(677) Apr 5 15:47:29 bucket smbd[3253]: '/tmp' does not exist or is not a directory, when connecting to [IPC$] The /tmp directory is permissions are 777, yet I continue to get this error. I am running Samba 3.0.2a on a Gentoo Linux machine with the 2.6.4 kernel. SMB support is compiled into the kernel. I previously tried 2.2.8a and had similar problems. I have done my best to be sure that the workgroup, WINS server, etc. settings are correct on all the machines. My config file reads as follows (with a few item ***ed out for security.) [global] workgroup = ******* writeable = yes encrypt passwords = yes wins support = yes browsable = yes server string = Samba %v on %h hosts allow = 10.11.12.0/255.255.255.0 127.0.0.1 hosts deny = 10.11.12.1 syslog only = yes log level = 1 oplocks = no level2 oplocks = no invalid users = ****, **** username level = 3 security = user passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd unix password sync = yes domain master = yes local master = yes preferred master = yes os level = 255 domain logons = no [homes] browsable = no writeable = yes [archive] path = /bucket/archive comment = The Main Archive browsable = yes volume = archv writeable = yes strict locking = yes valid users = @employees create mode = 0660 directory mode = 0770 admin users = ***, *** I would REALLY appreciate any help that I can get on this issue. I have tried everything I can think of and cannot fix the problems. Thanks so much, Curt Harms
