Last night I upgraded my FC5 to samba-3.0.23c from 3.0.21b. As a result I can
no longer browse shares on the samba server via \\hostname\share\. I can,
however, access everything as usual via \\10.0.0.2\share\.
Nothing else in my config has changed. The hostname resolves from all machines
on the domain correctly so it's doesn't appear to be a name resolution issue. I
can see the root shares on the samba server, but when I try to browse them I get
the error:
"\\hostname\share refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a
hard drive..."
I reverted back to 3.0.21b and the error persists. All clients are having the
same identical problem. TIA.
