Well, I WAS puzzled by this persistent error. Then I stumbled onto something and I might have fixed it. It looks like with an XP client, XP might be trying to renegotiate which port to talk (445 or 139) over at the start of every transaction.

Dear list readers - I have been googling for an answer for sometime now and have come up with nothing that is seemingly helpful but I need to correct an error.

Today, I get an email from her stating that it no longer

Hi All, Recently I have migrated my host OS from Aix 6.1 to Aix 7.1, after upgrade the users are having access problem to the shares as they have mapped to network drives.

Greetings - I have an interesting issue that I am trying to understand. This may not be a direct Samba related issue, but the results of the issue are showing up in the Samba log, so I thought I would start here. Please direct me elsewhere if there is a better forum for this question. I have spent some time Googling and have a small understanding of what is going on, but now my Google-fu

I wanted to set up samba on the third box and provide some extra storage space for both our Windows installs. It worked for a few days, then all of a sudden it stopped letting my account (michael) in while still letting my wife's account (amy) use the share.
