I now have a disk share working OK, though it requires some command-line arm-twisting for nmbd to believe that it's on the ethernet (with bogus IP addresses) as opposed to the PPP link. I do still have the following message appearing in the log.nmb file: Failed to find a master browser for FREEBIE using 10.255.255.255 'FREEBIE' is the LAN Manager domain (and workgroup) name. the 10.*.*.* network is my bogus ethernet. The result is that when my Win95 PC attempts to log on there is a pause followed by a warning that I may not be able to access some network resources. Despite (?) this, my password is checked properly. How do I convince nmbd that it IS the master browser? John -- Difficult conversations with great figures of history: 3.
