My apologies friends, I am trying to get to the share "public_folder" not
'open'. Sorry for the confusion. Again, thanks for your help.

I've got Samba 2.0.6 running on FreeBSD 4.0. Samba runs great except for one
share point. While browsing with Windows Explorer or mapping the file share
"open" directly,
I get an error that says the "network name can't be found." The error in my
samba log is:

I've got a number of other points mapped in the same configuration that
connect
just fine. Below is my smb.conf file:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

# FYI: samba log /var/log/smblogs

debug level = 1

# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = *nameofNTdomain*
        security = domain
        password server = *nameofmypasswordserver*
        server string = FreeBSD Samba 2.0.5
        map to guest = Bad Password

        encrypt passwords = yes
        smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd
        log file = /var/log/smblogs
        log level = 2

        max log size = 5000

# use the %U hack above instead....

        ;writable = yes
        ;public = yes
        ;browseable = yes

   path = /usr/local/samba/Atlantes
   public = yes
   only guest = yes
   writable = yes
   printable = no

[public_folder]
   path = /usr/local/samba/public_folder
   public = yes
   only guest = yes
   writable = yes
   printable = no
   create mask = 777
   directory mask = 777


Thanks in advance for any help.
