Well, You should put aside the samba problem for now and figure out why your client machines are having problems with TCP/IP connections. You should make sure that there are no problems with your network, and the TCP/IP stack of your microsoft clients. FTP, Telnet all should be working fine, before you start adding more variables to the problem, you probably have some network/routing/ethernet card config problem to fix.. The FreeBSD machine probably hangs for that long because it's probably trying to resolve it's host name. If this is the case you need to look at your /etc hosts, hosts.conf and resolve.conf files... (Just because you can ping it, doesn't really mean it's working, try a traceroute, ftp,telnet) At 07:40 AM 5/5/99 -0700, Anthony Hoelzle wrote: >when I try to connect to the server through network neighborhood it >tells me "\\server is not accessible, the network is busy" > >smbclient tells me no errors, ping works with ip or hostname (named >running fine), telnet works but is extremely slow, and ftp doesn't >work from windows-based ftp client/dos says connected to ip addr, but >nothing else (I think it's just timing out).
