similar to: Windows 2000 Not Seeing Linux Box Through Samba

Hi, I'm lucky enough to have samba working fine on SuSE 8.0, sharing a printer with several windows computers. Earlier today I even had my new wireless card working on a Win95 laptop and it could see the whole network, and I wirelessly printed from my living room. COOL. Unfortunately, I screwed it up. The wireless card seems to conflict with the old pcmcia (wired) card and so I

Hi there, I have a somewhat wide experience with samba. I've succesfully installed it as a client as well as a PDC on Windows networks. The last time, however, there has been an issue with the win9x stations. I've setup the Samba server over Linux to act as a PDC for the domain. I use dhcp to assign the network configuration to the hosts, and the only protocol installed on them is

I have installed red hat 7.3 as a server, apache is running, samba is running, I have an overlay called Webmin, I have shared a file on the red hat machine, set permissions 777, I can see the samba server on my windows 2000 server and my xp pro workstation. When I click on the listed samba server in my network neighborhood, a logon screen is returned, I have tried every userid and pw

In my high school computer lab I have Red HAt 5.0 with SAMBA being used as a file server. The kids are getting used to it. But recently I'm seeing something strange. A student with id "james" will log on Windows 95, go to network neighborhood and to the Linux computer and find there among other normal items two folders. The first will be his own folder with his id, but the second

Hello I'm having some dificulties joining my Samba 3.0alpha (and 2.2.7a) machine to my NT4 domain. Let me tell you what I'm attempting to accomplish. I want to setup the Samba system to authenticate to my NT domain so that I can use NTLM Proxy authentication with SQUID. Through reading the docs, I'm under the impression that in order to allow thre SQUID/Samba setup to auth on

Hello u all, sorry to bring this issue back again, but I?ve been searching and trying all the advices suggested in previous posts and I still can?t see the samba server in the win network neighborhood. I can see the samba shares from win via net view \\servername but if I issue a plain "net view" samba won?t show up. only the win machines, the same i can see on the Neighborhood...

I have a private IP network with one win98 PC and one Linux PC. The windows machine can only access shares if I map a network drive and type the path in explicitly. When I go to network neighborhood the Linux PC does not show up. Both machines are in the same workgroup, so it should be there. When I type the path directly into the address bar in network neighborhood the program stops

I have a win2000 box for multiple users. Each user has their own user name and password which is authenticated on the same box. I also have a Linux/Samba box serving up files and shared directories. The users and passwords are duplicated on the linux box - I'm not using user/pass synchronization or anything like that, I just duplicate the effort (for now). Each winNT user has a drive

Hi, we already have an NT network here, but I've recently added a linux box to our domain (FLORIDA). Basically I want the linux box to be accessible through network neighborhood like any other workstation but I don't want it to be the domain controller. Are there any how-to's specifically on this topic? If not, what settings do I have to do in the smb.conf file to get it to work?

Help! I have a simple home network. I have samba [2.2.7a] running with the smb.conf file listed below. I can see this machine in network neighborhood on a Win98 machine and a WinNT 4.0 machine, but I cannot see this share from a Win2K machine. If I issue a net use command from the cmd window on the Win2K machine I can mount the share and then open it as normal. WHY can't I see

Hi all, At my work I`ve set up a VPN. When I connect to it, my colleagues see all the workgroups from my side of the VPN (I live on a campus with ~50 workgroups). Do you know how I block the workgroup discovery on through the VPN gateway? Is the broadcast done on a specific port? Is samba actively repeating the broadcast and their replies? Greetings Tjerk Jan

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! My problem: I have a network with many workgroups and my samba server 3.0alpha21cvs is the only member of one of that workgroups. If I went to the network neighborhood and tried to open the workgroup of my samba server I got an error message saying that the workgroup "mygroup" was not available. So I minimized the settings in the global section of my smb.conf and I was able to

Hi, i'm reading: samba-3.0.20a/docs/htmldocs/Samba3-HOWTO/NetworkBrowsing.html#id2564441 ... The election process is /fought out, so to speak/ over every NetBIOS network interface. In the case of a Windows 9x/Me machine that has both TCP/IP and IPX installed and has NetBIOS enabled over both protocols, the election will be decided over both protocols. As often happens, if the Windows 9x/Me

I would like to know if there is a rule that can be created in iptables that would allow a samba server shares to be seen on the internal LAN. The interface is on eth0 the ip address of eth0 is 192.168.0.1. It seems that when I applied a firewall I have blocked smb from showing up. Now the users cannot see any shares via Network Neighborhood , but I can map a drive via
