Hello-
Note: I'm a newbie.
I have Samba running on redhat.It appears to be setup correctly, but the
problem is:
When I try to ping my PC from the redhat machine, I get 100% packet loss.
SETUP:
--I have no firewall setup on my linux machine, but i do in my router/hub.
--I am using dhcp for these 2 machines behind my hub giving out
192.168.1.100 amd 192.168.1.101
--My etc/hosts file looks like (NOTE: feathers and magus are my respective
computer names):
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.101 feathers feathers
192.168.1.100 magus magus
--My etc/resolv.conf file shows the 2 nameservers that my router/firewall
points to. they are correct.
I then run: etc/sbin/smb start
it says [OK] when it starts
Also, I can see the redhat machine from my PC, but I can't get into it.
Any ideas????
Thanks a bunch-
Mac
