Hi, I compiled samba 3.5.9 for ARM platform. It is up and running with the below smb.conf file. [ global ] interfaces = eth0 unix charset = UTF8 smb passwd file = /etc/passwd workgroup netbios name server string = Openrd Samba Server hosts allow = 10.0.30. hosts deny encrypt passwords = no security = share max log size = 0 create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 force create mode = 0777 force directory mode = 0777 use sendfile =yes wins support = yes guest account= root smb ports = 139 445 [share] path=/home/openrd/nfs/rootfs read only = no public = yes writeable = yes force group = root guest ok = yes When I tried to connect samba server with windows 7 machine. It is not getting connected and I could see error message in the log file as follows. [2000/01/01 07:42:37.783885, 0] lib/util_sock.c:1441(get_peer_addr_internal) getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected read_fd_with_timeout: client 0.0.0.0 read error = Connection reset by peer.
