Hi,
	I'm trying to setup a Linux box with Samba (1.9.18p10) and it isn't
having any luck making a home for itself on the network.

If I go to a Windows95 machine, I see all (well most) machines on the
net there, but not the Linux box. I can also not see any other machines
from the Linux box.

Here is log.nmbd output that repeats every 5 seconds or so:

find_workgroup_on_subnet: workgroup search for DYNDOMCTL001 on subnet
207.164.206.91: found
dump_workgroups: dump workgroup on subnet  207.164.206.91:  netmask= 
255.255.255.0:

                OMEGA91 40009a03 (Newlix Corporation's Newlix Omega
v1.0.0-m)

and smb.conf [global] section:

        server string = Newlix Corporation's Newlix Omega v1.0.0-m
        security = server

        preferred master = no
        workgroup = DYNDOMCTL001
        remote announce = 192.168.2.255

If I do 'smbclient -L omega91' I get:

Added interface ip=192.168.2.91 bcast=192.168.2.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
error connecting to 0.0.0.0:139 (Connection refused)

But if I do 'smbclient -L omega91 -R bcast' I get:


Added interface ip=192.168.2.91 bcast=192.168.2.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
