[I didn't see any replies to my 12/27 post... so reposting it] One day samba was working fine, the next it wasn't. I didn't change anything on either the Fedora Core 6 machine (relay) nor the XP Pro machine (oob2). I'm running Samba 3.0.23c on a fully patched FC6 x86 box. I followed all the steps in "Procedure 38.1. Diagnosing Your Samba Server", and until I got to step 8 everything worked fine. From the broken xp pro machine: oob2$ net view '\\relay' The Server service is not started. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2114. oob2$ (`relay' is the `fc6' machine. `oob2' is the broken xp pro box.) The `server' service is running. I stopped and started again countless times, and rebooted the xppro machine. I uninstalled samba from the fc6 machine (saving /etc/samba/smb.conf and restoring it afterwards... see below). Same problem after reinstallation. I can "view" other machines (an xppro machine) on the broken xppro machine: oob2$ net view '\\dude' Shared resources at \\dude kevin's computer Share name Type Used as Comment ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- c Disk The command completed successfully. oob2$ I downloaded wireshark 0.99.4 and found the point at which the good xppro (dude) and bad xppro (oob2) machines diverge: good: dude -> relay: NT Trans Request, NT CREATE relay -> dude: Nt Trans Response, NT CREATE, FID: 0x4000 bad: oob2 -> relay: NT Trans Request, NT CREATE relay -> oob2: Nt Trans Response, NT CREATE, Error: STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND So, I turned on debugging in smbd, and see this, which lines up perfectly with the wireshark output: [2006/12/27 14:01:05, 5] auth/auth_util.c:debug_unix_user_token(474) UNIX token of user 500 Primary group is 100 and contains 1 supplementary groups Group[ 0]: 100 [2006/12/27 14:01:05, 5] smbd/uid.c:change_to_user(260) change_to_user uid=(500,500) gid=(0,100) [2006/12/27 14:01:05, 4] smbd/vfs.c:vfs_ChDir(741) vfs_ChDir to /tmp [2006/12/27 14:01:05, 5] smbd/nttrans.c:call_nt_transact_create(1117) call_nt_transact_create [2006/12/27 14:01:05, 4] smbd/nttrans.c:nt_open_pipe(325) nt_open_pipe: Opening pipe srvsvc.

Good luck! timbo
An update to my problem. It's still there. However, I reinstalled XP Pro on the box that wasn't working, since I suspected it was the cause. Apparently it was not. On the FC6 side, I uninstalled (again) samba, samba-client and system-config-samba, making sure that no files were left behind. Well, same deal. Recall that I have 2 XP Pro boxes, one that works and one that doesn't work, *to the same samba server*. The one that fails does this: c:\>net view \\relay The Server service is not started. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2114. c:\> Using Wireshark 0.9.44 I got a capture of the packets during from the good and bad machines. -------------- next part -------------- I would really appreciate it is someone could look at the pcap files and help figure this out.

Apparently attachments are silently removed from posts. Here they are the pcap files referenced in my last email: http://www.known.net/tmp/good.pcap http://www.known.net/tmp/bad.pcap
I have discovered the cause of this problem. It was on the Windodws side and cause by my backup software. Genie Backup Manager (GBM), has an "open file" plugin called "FAM" (the "File Access Manager"). This is what was causing the problem. Once I uninstalled the FAM plugin, "net view \\relay" immediately started working again. Sigh.
