The 'endpoint is not connected' errors are common; I see them all over
the place without impacting functionality. I've researched those and
they seem to be largely ignored.
So you can access the shares, but I'm not clear on what client you're
using if XP still doesn't work? smbclient? from localhost? So Windows
clients universally cannot access the share, or do you have some that
can (i.e. Win2k works but XP does not)?
If nothing but the local machine can access the share I'd be very
suspicious that there is still some firewalling on the server:
iptables -L
should return something like this:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
If your iptables returned much more then run /etc/init.d/iptables stop
(presuming you're on a RedHat-ish system).
If some clients can access but others can't we'll have to dig a little
deeper.
