Do you start smbd/nmbd through inetd.conf or in /etc/rc.local? I recommend the latter at least as long as thing don't work reliably. I start nmbd with specifying the broadcast address explicitly in the command line (-B ). Have you looked at /usr/local/samba/log.<your-Win95-pc> ? Do you have a guest/pcguest account on the FreeBSD box? Can you connect (through smbclient to the Win95 box)? Do you have an entry of your FreeBSD box in your hosts file (lmhosts ?) in your Win95 box? Are you using DNS? > > What am I missing? How can I debug the connection?
