Greetings, Is the correct way to have the smbd and nmbd to reload a changed smb.conf somthing like the below script? #!/bin/sh smbspool=/var/spool/samba pidfiledir=/var/run smbd=/usr/local/sbin/smbd nmbd=/usr/local/sbin/nmbd kill -s SIGHUP `cat $pidfiledir/smbd.pid` kill -s SIGHUP `cat $pidfiledir/nmbd.pid` Would this cause any side effects? Thanks and thoughts welcome! -- Richard Nelson Try Something Without GPF's - - Not To Mention The Cost:...

Hi all, I'm trying to access a NT machine through the Internet. First I used an win95 as a client, but since I couldn't get it to work, I used a Linux machine (kernel 2.0.29) with Samba 1.9.18p7 to get some feedback. I did the following: linux01/usr/local/samba/bin> ./smbclient -L ntserver -I a.b.c.d Added interface ip=<myip> bcast=<broadcast> nmask=<netmask>
