Cary and Scott:

Not to be critical, but....

You need to shut down "iptables" not "ipchains"  RedHat 8.0 uses the new
iptables as default.  You have to force an install of "ipchains"  if you
want it.

As root: "service iptables stop" to stop them temporarily (until next
reboot),  "chkconfig --level=2345 iptables off" to stop them for good.

Kevin

Gary,

You have gone through the website under Support/Troubleshooting links,
right?
See also
ftp://ftp.stratus.com/pub/vos/customers/samba/SAMBA_Troubleshooting.rtf
If you're using NT domains (not simple "workgroups"), you have an extra
level of troubleshooting to perform since you're adding a password
server to the mix. Ideally you'd want to be sure Samba is configured
correctly in simple cases, before adding more complexity.

If these docs *don't* provide an obvious solution... at least some of
these tests will fail and you will have more precise information. 

IF it's safe to do so, shut down ipchains on the Red Hat box to
eliminate it as a source of interference.

Good luck,
Scott

I am having nothing but problems getting samba up and running. I have it
running on RedHat 8. I have reinstalled RedHat twice to make sure I have
a clean install. I can see the server from my Windows XP machine using
network neighbors, but when I double click on it I get: Path not found.
Any and all help would be appreciated, even pointing me to a good online
help. I have tried all the ones I can find.
 
Thanks
