I started the nmbd.
This is what I get in the log file.

Do you think I need to configure the nmb.conf file also.
If it is then where could it be.
By the way Testparm works great :
su-2.01# testparm
Load smb config files from /usr/local/etc/smb.conf
Processing section "[homes]"
Processing section "[printers]"
Processing section "[public]"
Loaded services file OK.
Press enter to see a dump of your service definitions
And the smbclient also works fine: I think
su-2.01# smbclient -L runner
Added interface ip=206.97.149.64 bcast=206.97.149.255
nmask=255.255.255.0

And I still dont see nothing in Win95. The hosts has been configured a
long time ago
because I run Virtual IP from the server and this server works as a
gateway.
Please help!!
