Hi,

I have Linux (SUSE 6.1) installed on a Thinkpad 770. Everything related
to the network works fine: FTP, Ping, Web, etc.

Now I tried Samba 2.05a. Configuration with SWAT was OK, the syntax of
smb.conf is OK too. I run through the procedure in diagnosis.txt and
failed on the 3rd step:

When trying an 

smbclient -L localhost

i receive the message:

Added interface ip=150.150.190.54 bcast=150.150.255.255
nmask=255.255.0.0
read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Broken pipe.
session request to LOCALHOST failed
read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Broken pipe.
session request to *SMBSERVER failed

It doesnt matter if the PC is in a Network or standalone, the result is
the same.

I modified the varaible TCP_NODELAY, but the result didnt change

Has anybody an idea which screw to turn?

Cheers
Axel
