Hi, When I try to connect to samba server from windows XP machines, I get an err "No process is on the other end of the pipe" .But some of the users running windows vista said they are not having any issues on that. The log.wb log says: [2010/01/20 16:43:41.368049, 0, pid=23202, effective(0, 1), real(0, 1)] rpc_client/cli_pipe.c:rpc_api_pipe(790) rpc_api_pipe: Remote machine abc.xyz.com pipe \NETLOGON fnum 0x4000returned critical error. Error was NT_STATUS_PIPE_DISCONNECTED Samba is 3.0.34 running under solaris 9. Thanks Paras.
