[Samba] Vijay - samba box not seen in browse list.

[Vijay Kumar]

Hi,

smbclient -L localhost   gives the error :

added interface ip=192.168.0.229 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
error connecting to 127.0.0.1:139 (Connection refused)
error connecting to 127.0.0.1 (Connection refused)

The same command given for the DomainB gives the same error(withteh ip of
the server ) ,
but for DomainA ( NT Server 4.0 ) it asks for a username and password. Why ?

and mount -t smbfs ...................... /mnt/floppy  gives the error :
Error connecting to 127.0.0.1 (Connection refused)
10934: Connection to cvsbkup failed
SMB connection failed.

Please help.
Regards,
Vijay.
