similar to: Browsing works, only Samba servers show up

I having difficulty getting browsing to fully work across two subnets. The subnets (having private addresses - 192.168.x.0) are connected by Linux boxes (RH6.1, one for each subnet) functioning as firewall, IP masquerade and router. On one subnet (call this one LEFT), there is an NT4.0 server as the PDC (also running WINS and DHCP) along with 50 or so clients and other servers (NT, Win9x) in

I am still having some troubles getting samba to work. I have installed samba and it seems to be fine from the server point of view. However, my client can see the server in the Network neighborhood, but I get network path not found. The server and the client are on different sub-nets. Both the client and the server are using DNS to resolve names. Both are resolvable. They use FTP between

Hi all... looking for some assistance with my first Samba setup. The setup: On a small (five-computer, mixed Win2k and WinXP pro) LAN, I'd like a share on my FreeBSD server to be available for storage. No printing, no PDC, no individual user directories or password protection -- just a big ol' slice of storage for everyone to access equally. I've come close, (the share shows up

Hello guys, I'm at my wits end.. hope someone can help.. this is the deal. I have setup a linux box to serve as a "gateway" for our internal lan. Running 2.0.34 slakware. I have 2 nic cards.. One for our "internal" lan (192.168.2.0) and the "external" lan..I have gotten the OS to see both of them, but when trying to get DHCP to work with both, it kept barfing..

I have installed samba on two different linux boxes that have identical os one system has only win95 and wfwg. All works perfect second system has only NT4.0 I can attach and use the 'public' guest ok= yes shares just fine the 'homes' shares and printers are visible. when I try to attach to a homes share of userxx by machine name userxx I get the same old 'access

This seems to be common enough problem. I've used a variety of methods (command line as well as utilities like LinNeighborhood) to mount XP shares on my RedHat 8.0 running Samba 2.2.7. I get consistent problems the other way around. Despite a couple of shares on my Linux partition, I am just unable to do get to it. Network Neighborhood shows my Linux/Samba server but no shares, nor can I

Hi list I have a problem. Running Samba 2.2.1a on a Redhat Linux 7.2 kernel 2.4.18 Client is a Microsoft Windows2000pro I can connect to all shares but I can not see my server in network neighborhood. I can see the the clients but not the server??? What have I missed? Some configuration I can test Thanks H?kan

I am relatively new to Linux and Samba, so pardon what may be a stupid question. I am having a problem accessing my SAMBA server's workgroup from my window's clients. The workgroup (WORKGROUP) shows up in the Windows network neighborhood, but when I click it I get a message that says "Workgroup is not accessible. Network name cannot be found." However, when I click Start, Run

i got this error when i try to log with some users.. anyone knows why? thank you very much!

Hi, I have a samba 2.2.1a (cvs-06.08.2001) running as PDC for my domain, and it is doing fine. But in the broadcast domain there are severeal other workgroups (no domains) with their own Domain Master Browsers. Additionaly there are always a lot of unconfigured computers not under my control, which build their own workgroups (e.g. mdkhome, workgroup...). My problem is now, how do I prevent all

Eric, I am busy trying to grasp the browse list concept. We have subnets and dial-in accounts. From what I have read you may have to get your Linux box act as aWINS server and have to dial-up user use the wins server to resolve names on the brows list. The browse list is updated every 12-15 minutes ao your dial-up account might not show upat first. This has caused me some trouble at first as I

I just successfully upgraded a server from v 2.2.8 to v3.0.7. When I execute smbstatus or swat it correctly shows v 3.0.7. When I browse thru network neighborhood it still shows v 2.2.8. I stopped samba, and removed /usr/local/samba/var/locks/browse.dat & wins.dat. Then restarted samba. It still reports v2.2.8 thru network neighborhood. In viewing browse.dat it shows 2.2.8. Where is this

we have samba [mostly] working in a VPN application connecting two Mandrake subnets using SSH. if all machines define the same workgroup name, and we define a single domain master browser, (with the other subnet defined as a preferred, local, master browser,) and a single WINS server, after a little while, all shares are visible to all WIN9x machines. this samba stuff is fantastic! 2 questions:

I just want to set up a folder on my Linux 7.2 running samba 2.2.1a-4. I have looked at the smb.conf over and over. Cannot find out why my share is not showing up. I just want users on my domain to browse the network and read the folder. I am on an NT domain and the furthest i got was seeing the workgroup testgrp on my network neighborhood. But when i click on the workgroup i get an access

Hi, at our local computer pool in the school we've a samba3 server and about 40 winnt-4.0 workstations. the main problem is, that the workstations have to wait for about 3 minutes after they started, before a user can login. in other words: the computer starts and if you try to login then immediatly you'll get "domain manos not available" or something like this. but if you wait

I recently reinstalled Linux on my fileserver (RedHat 7.2), which was running Samba (v 2.2.1a). Now, trying to reconfigure Samba back to its original state (silly me didn't keep a copy of the conf file) I've run into a problem. My win98 machines can't find the Samba server by name, but they can by number. By this I mean: On a Linux desktop, smbclient -L //marvin/ works as

I've trawled the Archives for assistance with this problem, but all the threads I've found petter out without a solution being posted. We have a Samba 2.2.1a server as a PDC for our network of NT4 and 98 machines. They all get along fine. We have roaming profiles established so people can move around. All no problem. We have a Quantum Snap 2000 server that has all our working

Hi all, I've had cross-subnet browsing working in Samba in the past, though I tend to struggle with it each time I set it up. For whatever reason, I can't seem to get things working this time. Summary: Only my desktop, not the file server, shows up in the desktop's Network Neighborhood. (I have left the machines running for several hours, in case there's a time-to-sync issue

Let's see I've got a network about 10 PCs running XP and 1 running Linux. I had setup Samba and it was running like a charm. XP pcs could access linux box through network neighborhood and access 2 shared dir and edit/change files. Really not sure what has gone wrong. I am using Samba 2.2.8a I run both smbd and nmbd as daemons. When I run ps -aux they show up. root 1553 0.0
