Hello,
I am trying to print to an HP LaserJet 4 setup as shared on Win95. I can
print from any other Win9x/NT client on the network, but not from the linux
server. I can issue an smbclient -M <Win95 server> and it will send the
message and popup on the Win95 server, but if I do smbclient -L <Win95
server> I get the following error message:
[root at LINUX sr]# smbclient -L TESTER1
added interface ip=130.115.10.44 bcast=130.115.255.255 nmask=255.255.0.0
session request to TESTER1 failed (Called name not present)
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Called name not present)
Does anyone know what this error message means and how I can fix it?
I have been looking at this problem for 2 days and I am now convinced that
Samba will not talk to a Win95 share. If anyone thinks otherwise, please let
me know.
Regards,
Steve Roberts
