Hi Prakash,
Some questions before we can help.
When you start the BDC what kind of output do you get in
/var/log/messages ?
Is your BDC registering itself as a logon server ?.
In your smb.conf what is your log level setting ?.
Is your WINS Server configured correctly and are your clients configured
to use it ?.
What does 'nmblookup -S YOURBDC' return ?
Hi Ian,
What log level do you want me to set in smb.conf before getting the
output of /var/log/samba/* (I think you meant this when you said
/var/log/messages, as I do not get anything in /var/log/messages when I
restart smb and nmb daemons). With log level at 3, here is the output
