Hello,

Jamie, Have you crated a user and a smbpasswd for the user that you are connecting using "Network Neighborhood?" -Bob -----Original Message----- From: Jamie Risk [mailto:jamie_risk@yahoo.ca] Sent: Friday, December 13, 2002 4:05 PM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] Stumped at "Network Neighbourhood", Samba server is visible, but it's path can't be found ... Hi all, I can see the RH7.3 linux box I've configured with the latest Redhat RPM samba...

I'm fiddling with the various configuration files to try and get Samba working - after making changes to various files I end up rebooting [shudder] the box to get the settings to take. I invoke the smbd, and nmbd binaries from a root bash command line, each with the "-D" option. I can't seem to send a "kill SIGHUP" command to the PID I read from a "ps -ex"

Hi all, I can see the RH7.3 linux box I've configured with the latest Redhat RPM samba package in the Windows 2000 network neighbourhood, but when I double click the W2000 computer icon I get the message "\\Linuxbox is not accessible, The network path was not found."

Within 24 hours, windows services are totally crippled. Initially everything works great. But it appears the Linux (Intel) box running samba (2.2.7, compiled from source)

Hello, If I wished to ping a windows machine from a Linux box _not_ using the dotted quad address, how can I discover their IP name (using their NetBeui name)? * DNS is not running locally, (does it need too?) * There isn't a local domain, I imagine we're using our ISP's domain name (we're running the lan segment off a switch connected to a DSL modem/router) * Windows and

When I enable Samba on my Linux box, the workgroup "Workgroup" eventually disappears from site in both the GUI "Network Neighbourhood" and at the W2000 cmd line "net view". It takes a little while for this to happen, and initially it works well. The Linux Box information can be found at the url below. But a short description of the setup is as follows: * Network is
