Hi,
The two servers I will mention are HP-UX 10.20 with samba-2.0.3
I've setup a dual-homed host and face two challenges. All of a sudden
swat has stopped serving web pages. I did no radical changes to the
smb.conf file (via swat) and now I get a "web server found, waiting for
answer" message and it just stays there, I can find no relevant error
message in the log files. This isn't all that criticall since I can
still edit by hand, but it does bother me, and I'm afraid it means I
have bigger problems. Any pointers?
Secondly, I'm not exactly sure my host, which has "wins support = yes"
option, with no other WINS server in the network, is working. How can
I test this? For example, I have another samba server which has "wins
server = 130.6.96.2" (the first server) but it never shows up in browse
lists. The wins.dat file and browse.dat file in the dual-homed host
make no mention of the second host, but I'm not sure that actually
means anything. No log file makes mention of any error.
Heres my globals section:
workgroup = INFORMATICA
interfaces = 130.6.96.2/24 130.6.98.2/24
max log size = 500
log level = 2
name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast
socket options =
printcap name = lpstat
os level = 62
preferred master = Yes
domain master = Yes
wins support = Yes
remote announce = 130.6.98.255
remote browse sync = 130.6.98.255
guest account = red
Thanks for any help you gurus might provide.
