similar to: Samba Server as WINS Server

Dear Samba Experts. I an quite new to samba but know the basics of creating chares and permissions, I think!!! Been digging into HOWTO for pdc logon using windows boxes. Having great difficulty in getting win2k to complete and logon to a samba 2.2.5 PDC configuration. Win98 is ok and runs the logon scripts as required. I have attached the smb.conf used and can confirm the directory

Hello All, Could someone tell me why I can't see my linux box (nermal) in network neighborhood on my NT Workstation or 95/8 machines here is my smb.conf: #======================= Global Settings ===================================== [global] # netbios name = How machine will appear in network neighborhood netbios name = nermal # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg:

Hey, I am new to Linux, and I am caught up in an issue with Samba. I have two computers. One is a Win XP Pro and the other is Fedora Core 1 sharing a cable modem connection via a D-Link Router. With these to computers I want to be able to share files in-between the two of us. With samba I can see my XP computer with no problems. I just have to type in a user name and password. My problem comes in

I am trying to use Samba to access files on Linux server from a Windows XP client. The server is running RedHat Linux 9 with Samba 3.0.21a installed, and the client is running Windows XP Home Edition, Service Pack 2. After installing the new Samba package on the server, I edited the configuration file, started the service and added a user with smbpasswd. To test that this was all working, I

( could not post complete reply, message too large?) I think that's why I have a lot of black screens on the clients. Here debian pdc smb.conf: root at fai:~# cat /etc/samba/smb.conf # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too # many!)

Hey guys... I've been beating my brains out trying to determine the cause of this problem, read tons of stuff online but have not been able to make any headway. My RH9 server bit the dust and I had to completely rebuild it. Built it as a Fedora Core 2 server running Samba version 3.0.3-5 and re-imported my old smb.conf file, smbpasswd file and such. Re-created my share and gave it 777

hi, i've been trying for like two weeks to figure out why samba doesn't run properly. from the logs it looks like smbd will start followed by nmbd. then nmbd will exit for no apparent reason. i'm able to start samba manually with the command '/etc/init.d/samba start'. right now i'm assuming nmbd is the reason why samba doesn't load. i'm running samba version

Hi, I have installed the samba-1.9.17p3 on our Solaris 2.5.1 (named 'dor-ent1') and Linux (named 'iserver'). They work when I test out 'smbclient -L dor-ent1' from Linux machine and vice-versa. I also can map the directories on 'dor-ent1' or 'iserver' to my win95 machine using: 'net use * \\dor-ent1\tmp'.

When I set: wins support = yes time server = yes my wins service stops working and no computers show up in the network neighborhood..as soon as I change time server = no, they start to re-populate. I have looked around and havent found a definitive answer (apologies if I overlooked it)... but if someone could tell me if this is a documented issue, or just me that woudl be great Thanks

This is probably an easy one. I have just setup Samba on my Debian 2.0 system with kernel 2.0.34. It was extremely easy set up, great job Samba and Debian people. My problem is that I can see both of my Debian computers in Network Neighborhood but can not log in to both of them. The one I can log in to is Debian 1.3 with 2.0.33 on it. When I double-click on the Debian 2.0 machine it prompts me for
