Hi,
This question may have been asked before but i am new to this.
I am running samba-1.9.18 on Redhat 5.2 on a 2.0.34 kernel. This machine
is on a 10.36.4.x network. The problem is if i go to a Win 95/NT computer
on another domain 10.36.x.x, the samba server on the linux box cannot be
seen by this machines. I have tried the remote announce option as seen
below but it does not work.
I also have some trouble on how i could set up samba as a replacement for
an NT server.
here is my smb.conf

Thanks in advance
