[Samba] Samba only access by ip but not hostname/server string

[ted_chou12]

Hi, sorry, I finally got it to work finally, with changing the line:<br />
interfaces = eth0 192.168.2.101/24<br />
it finally do show up in my network places! and accessible through hostname.
But there is a slight problem, my network streaming media player (play files
off the shared folder in local network) can see the machine! but doesn't
find any files in it, here is the log:<br />
<blockquote>
//This is a normal computer connection:<br />

The connection seems to close off in a few seconds, what is likely to be the
issue?
Thanks,
Ted
