Re: my samba server: Anyone have any ideas why my smbclient won't connect to
the NT pdc. I've tried Nautilus with command: smb:
That allows me to see all of the machines on the network including the pdc
but it won't let me see the shares on the pdc or anything else.
I've also tried Konqueror with command: lan:/
That returns "could not connect to host localhost"
If I enter the command: $ host pdc
I get: host pdc not found
smbd and nmbd are running and I can browse other nt computers on the lan but
I can't drill down to the disk shares on the pdc. Samba seems to be running
OK from the nt client side as I can access a couple of shares on samba from
nt. The nt server is service pack 6a. smb.conf is:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from humphry (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2002/08/02 11:52:58

# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = LFRG-TLH
        netbios name = HUMPHRY
        server string = samba v% on (L%)
        security = DOMAIN
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        min passwd length = 5
# null passwords = Yes
        password server = TLH-FILE-PRINT
        unix password sync = Yes
        domain logons = Yes
        wins server = 10.10.12.2
        guest account = guest

[test]
        path = /home/test
        read only = No
        guest ok = Yes

[jmc]
        comment = %U home directory
        path = /home/jmc
        read only = No
        guest ok = no

[spm]
        comment = %U home directory
        path = /home/spm
        read only = No
        guest ok = no

[hp4ff]
        path = /tmp
        printable = Yes
        postscript = Yes
        printing = lprng

Thanks
John
