A couple of questions,
Did you re-establish user passwords in Samba?
Why do you have the smb.conf line....
deny hosts = ALL
Seems like this would reject all connections.
Is the firewall running (IPCHAINS & IPTABLES). If so, have you set it up
properly?

Subject: [Samba] Please help! Updated to Redhat 8.0, now can't get samba
to work
I just installed Redhat 8.0, got the errata samba packages, but I still
can't get Samba to work. I have gone through the Diagnosis.txt file
with the following results:
Test 1:
everything appears OK
Test 2:
pings work both ways
Test 3:
OK
Test 4:
# nmblookup -B lion __SAMBA__
querying __SAMBA__ on 192.168.8.14
192.168.8.14 __SAMBA__<00>
OK
Test 5:
# nmblookup -B cub '*'
querying * on 192.168.8.15
192.168.8.15 *<00>
Test 6:
# nmblookup -d 2 '*'
added interface ip=192.168.8.14 bcast=192.168.255.255 nmask=255.255.0.0
added interface ip=172.16.191.1 bcast=172.16.191.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=192.168.250.1 bcast=192.168.250.255
nmask=255.255.255.0
querying * on 192.168.255.255
querying * on 172.16.191.255
Got a positive name query response from 172.16.191.128 ( 172.16.191.128)
172.16.191.128 *<00>
Not the same as Test 5, but I think it's still okay.
Test 7:
OK
Test 8:
C:\WINDOWS> net view \\lion
Error 59: An unexpected network error has occurred. Quit all running
programs, restart your computer, and then try again. If the problem
persists, contact your network administrator.
The problem persists. I'm not an expert in network stuff and this is
just a network between my Linux host and my PC runinng on VMWare on the
same machine. I have no idea what would cause this. Please help.
Test 9:
C:\WINDOWS> net use x: \\lion\tmp
Same message as in Test 8
Test 10:
# nmblookup -M Workgroup
querying Workgroup on 192.168.255.255
querying Workgroup on 172.16.191.255
172.16.191.128 Workgroup<1d>
Test 11:
File manager won't connect to it.
Please help me understand what is wrong and how to fix it. Below, I've
included my smb.conf. Let me know of any other information that is
needed.
Thanks!

# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you

# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"
