> I have set up several Samba servers in the past and each and every one has > this symptom. Any help would be appreciated. You have "xl1" as a network interface, which is a hardware interface and not an IP network. You are forcing the samba server to win browse master elections with os level higher than 33. This may or may not work, and is partly dependent on the Windows version you are using. If your clients are Win2K there is a known bug where Win2K goes looking for services that are non-existent on an SMB (or NT4 for that matter) server and a registry modification is required to fix this. I would suggest running "ethereal" which is a packet sniffer and getting packet traces. You will probably find out that browsing is broken on your MS networks, which will tell you where to look. My home network uses an NT4 domain controller and the SMB server has OS = 3, so it won't become the browse master. I also use NTHOSTS entries in TCP/IP setup with all the local systems in it. Is your /var/spool/lock chmod 755 ? Mike Squires My smb.conf looks like this: [global] workgroup = SQUIRES server string = Samba Server hosts allow = 10.1.5 load printers = yes log level = 0 debug level = 0 log file = /var/log/log.%m max log size = 500000 security = user interfaces = 10.1.5.1 encrypt passwords = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY IPTOS_THROUGHPUT read raw = yes write raw = yes shared mem size = 6291456 os level = 3 dns proxy = no [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writable = yes [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no guest ok = no writable = no printable = yes To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
