Hello,
I have been running Samba without problems for several years
now. Recently I added another machine to our network and
installed RH 7.2 and the Samba that came with the distributon ( v
2.2.1a).
Using my past experience, I configured the machine. Using a
W95 client, I can see the server but I cannot access the shares on it.
I began the diagnosis procedure on your web site and would like to pass
on a few differences between the instructions given and the reponses I
got from my new machine.
Step two: entering the command results in the server asking for a
password as in test 7.
My setup failed at test 8. When running
"net view \\BIGSERVER"
I received the following error message:
Error 59: An unexpected error has occured. Quit all running
programs, restart your computer, and then try again. If the problem
persists, contact your network administrator.
I tried entering another wins server in the advanced TCP/IP section but
that did not solve the problem.
I have another machine (RH 7.1) running on the same network without a
problem. I also have a commercial version of Samba running on the
network (Facetwin).
On the problem machine, I have noticed that no user log files are being
created when I attempt to browse the shares as they are on the other
machines.
Can you give me any help?
