Hi all !

I don't know what else to do but I absolutely can't get it to work !!! :(

I've installed 2.2.8a on my SGI 6.5.17 workstation and all the tests 
I've done failed. I'm getting quite desperate. :(
Ok. Point by point I'll try to explain what I did.

- Installed the 2.2.8a successfully and started it successfully.
- Logged in the samba (almost) successfully from the PC (win2000).
- Entered the share successfully (I can see all the files in it)
- Tried to create a new folder (the Italian win2k version calls it 
"Nuova cartella") unsuccessfully. I get the message "Impossible to 
create the folder "Nuova cartella"" "Impossible to find the specified file".
- I then tried to create a new text document successfully (the Italian 
win2k vesion calls it "Nuovo Documento di testo").
- I tried to edit the newly created text file by double clicking on the 
text document icon, unsuccessfully. I get the message "\\C061\test\Nuovo 
Documento di testo.txt" "Directory name not valid".
Please note that at this point I cannot get rid of the file I've created 
nor any other file I try to cancel even thought all those files belong 
to me ! :(

This is the listing of the "test" directory on the "C061" server:

ls -la
total 119524
drwxr-xr-x    2 catadm   catia          145 May 22 15:32 .
drwxr-xr-x   59 catadm   catia         4096 May 22 15:53 ..

samba65.2.2.8a.tardist


I include to this message the log.nmbd, log.smbd, log.w2k-sistemi1 plus 
the smb.conf files.

Please, please, please help me !
Thank you loads !
