Hello,
I am sorry to write into you guys so late but I am baffled here. I had this
SAMBA server blasting along a month ago with a DOMAIN at my NOC in Austin.
Then I brought it to a new site and it no worky. Yes, the DOMAIN is
different and I have been battling all day to reconfigure this thing to the
domain. I have lost the battle and have reverted to basic configs which
still do not work. I could use a second or third set of eyes because
regardless of what I do I can not seem to see what the frell is wrong here.
I have dropped back to the most basic of configs because I am going nuts.
Here is a copy of my smb.conf
================
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from localhost.fictx.net (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2002/09/16 18:10:57
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = FICMX
name = pen-pen
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
guest ok = yes
path = \home
valid users = root %S
read only = no
====================
Very simple. I need to see what shares are available so I do the following
at the UNIX command.
to see the available hosts and I get the following output.
====================
[root at pen-pen samba]#smbclient -L pen-pen
added interface ip=10.2.5.10 bcast=10.2.5.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Password:
Anonymous login successful
Domain=[FICMX] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.1a]
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
homes Disk Home Directories
IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba 2.2.1a)
ADMIN$ Disk IPC Service (Samba 2.2.1a)
Server Comment
--------- -------
PEN-PEN Samba Server
Workgroup Master
--------- -------
FICMX PEN-PEN
====================
So it tells me that the share "homes" is available but when I attempt to
connect for a test I receive the following.
====================
[root at pen-pen samba]#smbclient //pen-pen/homes
added interface ip=10.2.5.10 bcast=10.2.5.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Password:
Anonymous login successful
Domain=[FICMX] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.1a]
tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an invalid share
name)
====================
I also get no appearance of the shares when I try to connect to it from a
windows clien. I can see the machine pen-pen existing in the workgroup
FICMX but that is it. It shows that there are no shares available.
Any thoughts other than eat a gun would be helpful. ;) Thanks in avance.
Bill
