I'm having the same problem like before... I installed Samaba from the sources on my FreeBSD 4.4 machine. I made a simple smb.conf file. I manually ran smbd and nmbd with the "-D" argument. I can use smbclient to connect internally from my FreeBSD box. In addition, testparm, yields no errors. But... for the life of me I cannot get my useless windows machines to connect to the samba server. I've tried it all... i've tried mapping the drives... using "net use e: \\froggie5\test" and "net view" from the dos prompt. I can't get through to my Samba server... ports 137-139 are in my /etc/services file. I can connect to SWAT from my windows machine... But... I cannot my windows machines to see my FreeBSD box on the LAN. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make a great connection at Yahoo!
