The subject line says it all really. I'm running Samba 2.0.4.b on FreeBSD, sharing a tree as I normally do (we use samba on about a dozen machines so I'm reasonably familiar with it). This one particular machine is not accessible from Windows NT Workstation 4.0 clients. It works fine for Windows 95 and Windows 98 clients. The machine does not show up in the Network Neighborhood for

Hi All, I have two boxes running samba 3 on fedora2. Box A is the primary domain controller & smb file server and we (a primary school in QLD, Australia) can login from our windows 98 machines with samba verifying usernames & passwords. This week I've been trying to setup Box B as a print server (and eventually limit students' printing sprees). I've connected the

just having finished this *MOST* frustrating exercise, here's what i ended up doing. i downloaded a file from the hp ftp site called: hpwj_solaris_en.tar.Z (see http://whp-web1.extweb.hp.com/cposupport/networking/software/SOLd615.PKG.html ) this is a complete configuration setup utility that configures your solaris machine to serve the printer. and then you point samba to the solaris

Hello, I know I should get rid of the problem by my own, but unfortunally I failed. So I ask: I`ve a subnet of win9x and WinNT clients connecting to our Linux file server (no more servers in this subnet) via samba 2.02. All win95 can see and mount services of the Samba server. But win98 and WinNT can only see the server but can not connect to a service. I`ve no encryption and security= user in

Hi List! I've got a problem that I've read about on the web several times now, regarding the uploading of printer drivers to the samba [print$] share. When I try to set the printer driver for an existing printer (HP LaserJet 6L enabled with CUPS) the W2K wizard let me select the driver *.inf file but when finishing I get the well known error message: "Unable to install Intel,

Hi all, I've had 2.2.1a working well on a small network with Win98 clients for some time now. I'm having a bit of a struggle getting a Win2K client working, though. I think the problem is as much my lack of understanding of NT/2000 as of Samba. Answers to any of the following questions would be of help as I try to get things up and running: 1. What exactly does Win2K mean by a

I am running Samba 2.2.3a and have my users logging into the 'samba domain'. My WinNT and WinXP users are working fine with roaming profiles and policies. My problem is my Win98 users. The logon script doesn't seem to be working, i.e. when I log onto a Win98 machine (logging into the domain), the logon script doesn't run. I have opened up the permissions to the logon script

Sorry for posting somewhat off-topic... Most my music files have names in hebrew (FAT32 partition). I dual-boot between a hebrew win98 (where these files are opened nicely by winamp, freeamp and any other program) and a hebrew win2000, where windows media player is the only program I've seen so far to open them. All others say "can't open file ???? ?? ???.ogg" (or .mp3) - both

To all the helpful people out there, We currently use samba on our Unix server and have win98 clients from a winNT network that we share files with. I have a user that will soon be working at home using a Unix (SGI Octane2) box and a Win98 PC. He wants to be able to share files between the machines. My question is will I need some kind of hub between the two for them to make Samba work or

Hi there, i have trouble with Win NT 4 and WIN98 in XEN DomU when i will install. WinNT says on Hardware detect: # i can find graficadapter, install fails, please reboot ...

Yesterday I moved my LAN domain from a W2K server to Samba and I have problems logging on to my WinNT 4 machine using local profiles. My boss's computer is a freshly installed W2K and it had no problem at all with the change. My computer is a WinNT4 SP 6 and when I tried to log on with my user it said it couldnt find the profile and logged me off immediately. I used to have a roaming

Problem: Since I changed the network settings on my Win98 machine from obtain an IP address automatically to specify an IP address so that my Linux box can see it using samba, I now get a DNS configuration problem when I connect to the Internet using my dial-up connection. What should I do? To help here are the settings below. Before I connected Samba: Win98 Box Configuration: TCP/IP ? Intel

Hi Peter, i had a long, frunstrating web surfing yesterday night, searching for something that could apply to your case. I didn't find much at all, sorry. The only thing perhaps interesting to you could be this: http://us2.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/htmldocs/printer_driver2.html This doc contains a section about migrating from 2.0.x to 2.2.x I think the problem lyes in the new way samba

Hi, I have a client with 2 Win98 out of 15 computers that refuse to see the server when they first turn them on in the morning. When they logon as a new user, not a reboot, it connects and they work fine for the rest of the day. They can even reboot whenever they want throughout the day and it works, but when they turn it off over night, the computers refuse to see the domain the next morning.

Hello, Here's a repost on my message of a few days ago, for reasons that I'm not sure if it went through. If it did, my apologies, all suggestions welcome. I'm having an identical problem on slackware linux 7.0 and freebsd 3.4-release and windows 98-2, with sp1, and samba 2.05 and 2.06, depending on which system I've got up. Whenever I restart samba for whatever reason, making a
