Jerry,
You are the king! This WAS the issue (that I have been struggling with for
over a year and always giving up on).
Now when I do a 'smbclient -L <virtualserver>' the %L gets the correct value
always:
So, I suppose that all the examples and documentation I've found on the net are
not entirely correct in that they also need to specify 'smb port = 139' for it
to work correctly with Win2K and later:
* http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch06.html
*
http://nic.phys.ethz.ch/readme/69#Distribution%20of%20the%20virtual%20Samba%20servers
This is one of those obscure things that if you don't understand all the inner
workings of samba and its configuration options (and Win2K and beyond) I don't
see how you would get it working.
Is there any reason why 'smb ports = 139' should be the default? After all,
samba is primarilly for interaction between unix and windows from what I
understand.
Thank you so much for your response!
