[Samba] Samba 3 in a NT domain problem to connect with Win98
Hi I hope you could help me. I don't get any answer i the newsgroups. I have a Win NT box as a PDC and running the linux box as a domain member. I have updated to Samba 3 on linux box. I joined the domain with no errors. Everything works fine from another NT box that I have I can browse the linux box shares and so on. But if I do the same thing from the Win98 machine I get this error messages "The network name cannot be found"??I?can ping the win98 box from the linux box both with name and ip adress and that works the other way as well. Could someone help me with the problem? I get no error messages in the Samba log files. I'm running Gentoo and samba-3.0.2a-r2. I have followed the checklist on this page and everything seems OK ?http://se.samba.org/samba/docs/man/howto/diagnosis.html? ?Below?is?the?relevant?part?of?my?smb.conf? ? Code: ?[global]? ?workgroup?=?valhall? ?security?=?domain? ?printcap?name?=?cups? ?disable?spoolss?=?yes? ?show?add?printer?wizard?=?no? ?winbind?uid?=?15000-20000? ?winbind?gid?=?15000-20000? ?winbind?separator?=?+? ?winbind?use?default?domain?=?yes? ?use?sendfile?=?Yes? ?printing?=?cups? ?restrict?anonymous?=?no? ?domain?master?=?no? ?preferred?master?=?no? ?max?protocol?=?NT? ?ldap?ssl?=?No? ?server?signing?=?Auto? ?name?resolve?order?=?host?lmhosts?wins?bcast? ?password?server?=?*? ? ?display?charset?=?ISO8859-1? ?unix?charset?=?ISO8859-1? ?dos?charset?=?850 ? ?[Homes]? ?comment?=?Home?Directories? ?valid?users?=?%S? ?browseable?=?no? ?read?only?=?no? do you see the linux box in network neighbourhood on the win98 machine? Answer: Yes Can you browse other (NT) shares from that machine? Answer: Yes Do you get the error when you try to access a share on the linux box or when you try to access the box to get a list of available shares? Answer If I do like this from the win98 machine try start>run \\name.of the.samba.server\share I get an extended error message If I try to access the linux box by clicking Network and then click the icon of the linux box I get the "The network name cannot be found" error message. I found something in the samba log files! if I'm running it like this start>run \\name.of the.samba.server\share In the log file for the NT machine ( which work) it says [2004/05/23 19:07:15, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(705) server1 (192.168.1.10) signed connect to service ville initially as user ville (uid=1000, gid=100) (pid 4371) and on the Win98 box I get an extended error occured message and in the samba log file (/var/log/samba/log.oden) for the Win98 box it says [2004/05/23 18:51:15, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(705) oden (192.168.1.35) connect to service ville initially as user ville (uid=1000, gid=100) (pid 4325) [2004/05/23 18:51:15, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(887) oden (192.168.1.35) closed connection to service ville the only difference I can se is that the connection directly closes. Everything worked before the upgrade when I was running Samba 2.2.8 Please help or advice //BR Niclas
