Hi

I am a newbie so forgive me if this quuestion has been already answered.

I have a Linux box behind a firewall. I have compiled, installed and
configured a Samba server (2.0.4)  in the Linux box (redHat 5.0). Basically
I have an out-of-the-box configuration:

# Global parameters
        workgroup = SGI
        Netbios name = prueba
        server string = Servidor Prueba
        security = SHARE
        log file = /root/smb.log
        max log size = 1000000
        read prediction = Yes
        read size = 8192
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY
        lm announce = True
        invalid users = root
        hosts allow = 192.168.18.148
        queuepause command = enable %p
        remote announce = 192.168.18.255/SGI

[todo]
 path = /usr/local
 read only = Yes
 guest ok = Yes


The firewall allows traffic through port 139 and have a NAT rule for the
server.

Well, I am able to connect to the Samba server using smbclient from other
Samba server, but when I try to map a network drive in a W95, it produces
the followin message:

"The network is busy" (or something like this, because its a Spanish
translated edition).

Well, I want to know what this error message means. Any clue will help.

Thanks
