I attempted to upgrade from FC3 to FC4 without success (the system would still run). So I ended up doing a full FC4 install. While still running FC3 (with a perfectly running Samba), I copied all of the important Samba files (smb.conf, smbusers, lmhosts, etc.) to a safe place (burned it to a CD). After getting the new FC4 install up and running and installing Webmin, I copied the Samba files from the CD to the standard location (/etc/samba). I attempted to do a start on the product (while being logged on as root) and received the following: Entered: service start smb Received: smbd start failed nmbd start successful Using Webmin I get: "Access Control error on smbd" "Start Failed" What is it trying to tell me? TIA, Gene Poole gene.poole@fds.com
