Running samba on AIX 6.1. Mapping share on windows 7 workstation. My share will only map using the ip address, not by server name. smbclient -L //<servername>/testarea on the unix box is successful When I run a net view command I receive a system error. C:\Users\Desktop>net view \\<servername>\test<file:///\\%3cservername%3e\test> area System error 53 has occurred. Is the problem with my samba config or possible a network issue? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated smb.conf: [global] dns proxy = yes log file = /usr/local/samba/log.%m smb ports = 139 server string = Samba Server workgroup = NECA.ORG client lanman auth = yes encrypt passwords = yes security = user passdb backend = tdbsam max log size = 50 client plaintext auth = yes unix password sync = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u [testarea] comment = Test Area path = /testarea public = no writable = yes printable = no Diane K.
