Samba client and server problems

[Michael Oatman <sunsetsea yahoo com>]

Hi all,

1) is there a better list for Samba client/server q's?

if not...

2) I cannot browse to "lan:" on my RH7.2 box while all WinXP boxen can browse to workgroup
(smb.conf has workgroup name correct) and still I cannot after configuring with webmin.

3) before webmin, I could see my RH7.2 box from WinXP boxen, but could not authenticate -- it
would keep prompting for user/pw in WinXP -- and now after webmin, I cannot see my RH7.2 box at
all in the workgroup

I have done the mksmbpasswd command thingy and then removed all lines from smbpasswd that I didn't
want connecting from WinXP boxen.  I then used webmin to specifically make those users and groups
invalid.

Webmin added a few lines, like "socket address" and "socket options" for which the respective
values are the IP addresses (10.0.0.254 127.0.0.1) on which I'm listening for SMB, and
"TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192".

Does this help?

TIA, Michael
