Thanks for read my question!
My samba server exists a little problem. Pls help me.
Samba server can browse client, but client can not browse server. WHY??
Now I can use smbclient command on server , I can browse the client and server self share
diretory intent. But the client PC can catch my computer in neibourhood, but can not browse the
share directory. It said "Network path not corret."
Both server and client locate the same network , have
the same user"ice" name and same password.
client PC : windows 2K ,workgroup: design
IP Address. . . . . . . . . : 129.202.0.240
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . : 129.202.0.253
Primary WINS Server . . . . : 129.200.0.153
samba server: Redhat Linux 7.3, samba rpm version: samba-2.2.6-1.i386.rpm
host name: smbsv statically obtain IP address: 129.202.0.223
inet addr:129.202.0.223 Bcast:129.202.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
/etc/hosts file: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
129.202.0.223 smbsv smbsv
129.202.0.240 tan
smb.conf:
[global]
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name
netbios name = smbsv
workgroup = design
# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
server string = smbsv
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
[public]
#comment = Public Stuff
path = /home/ice
valid users = ice
browseable = yes
public = yes
read only = yes
write list = ice
read list = ice
To find the problem,
I found my samba server can not resolve its name but can resolve client name.
Run command"nmblookup -B 129.202.0.255 smbsv":
displays"querying smbsv on 129.202.0.255
name_query failed to find name smbsv"
but run command"nmblookup -B 129.202.0.255 tan" displays:
"querying smbsv on 129.202.0.255
129.202.0.240 tan <00>" . It is OK.
Run "nbtstat -A 129.202.0.223" display"Host not found"
Run "nbtstat -A 129.202.0.240" displays
"
NetBIOS Remote Machine Name Table
Name Type Status
---------------------------------------------
TAN <00> UNIQUE Registered
DESIGN <00> GROUP Registered
TAN <03> UNIQUE Registered"
Can you help me to solve the "solve name" problem??
