Hi,

I just installed Red Hat 9 on a Dell Latitude D600
laptop.  Then I installed VMware 4 and installed
Windows XP as the guest operating system.  I want to
run Samba on the Red Hat 9 host to share files with
the Windows XP guest.  Each OS individually is running
fine.  I compiled Samba 3.0.2 on the Red Hat host, but
I can't start Samba.  I try starting it with
"/usr/sbin/smbd -D", but "/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb status"
always shows that it's stopped.  When I do "smbclient
-L starsky", I get:

added interface ip=192.168.230.17
bcast=192.168.230.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=172.16.105.1 bcast=172.16.105.255
nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=172.16.214.1 bcast=172.16.214.255
nmask=255.255.255.0
error connecting to 127.0.0.1:139 (Connection refused)
Error connecting to 127.0.0.1 (Connection refused)
Connection to starsky failed


starsky is the name of the Red Hat host.  I also can't
connect to starsky:901 to run SWAT.  httpd is running
on the host.  Thanks for any suggestions,



Hidong
