However....

When I try the command
nmblookup -M TESTGROUP
querying  TESTGROUP on 192.168.255.255
name_query failed to find name TESTGROUP #1d

My /etc/hosts file is
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
192.168.100.101 testpc

/etc/samba/lmhosts is
127.0.0.1 localhost

/etc/samba/smb.conf is
workgroup = TESTGROUP
server string = Samba Server
netbios name = LINUXSERVER

I've been working on this on and off for a week now with no results. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

querying  TESTGROUP on 192.168.255.255
					 ^^^^^^^
This is weird. The broadcast is going further it should go. What is the
subnet mask you are using? Should be 255.255.255.0.

Also remove the entries in lmhosts.

Cheers
Gustavo

I can't seem to  install Samba 2.2.1a on a Linux 7.1 server

Most tests in the troubleshooting guide pass, including testparm, smbclient
to see the shares etc.The problem is I'm unable to see the server from my
Win95 client. There is only the server and the client on a small test
network. The machines can ping one another. The client has WINS activated
and is pointing to the server. When I try a net view command, the client
says there is no computer called LINUXSERVER on the network. When I start
smb, the log file contains the following

/var/log/samba/log.nmbd
[2001/08/01 14:51:45, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:sig_term(65)[
Got SIGTERM: going down...
