Dear list readers:
I've installed the most recent Samba from source on my Redhat Linux
server. The simple file share I've made shows up, the machine pings
correctly, and does ftp and apache fine, but won't let anyone login to
Samba. For example:
$ smbclient '//WWW.PSYCH.UDEL.EDU/SIMPLE/' -U me
added interface ip=128.175.41.164 bcast=128.175.41.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Password:
Domain=[SIMPLE] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.7]
tree connect failed: ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree
connect.)
Any idea what this error means????
I've checked things like my services on ports 137/139, and that the
smbd/nmbd processes are running. Below is my simple smb.conf:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# Date: 2000/08/10 21:01:21
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = SIMPLE
netbios name = PSYCHOLOGY_SERVER
netbios aliases = WWW
server string = PSYCHOLOGY_SERVER
wins support = Yes
default service = homes
[test]
comment = just a test
path = /export/samba/test
guest account = guest
writeable = Yes
guest ok = Yes
[homes]
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
