You all rule... I don't think I could expect a quicker reply. I thought inetd was always running by default... how would I have checked to see if it was running? This is the output I get after typing 'ps waux | grep inetd' root 197 0.0 0.1 1060 832 ?? Is 9:31AM 0:00.06 inetd -wW I uncommented the 3 samba entries... and did this ps waux... deal... I don't know exactly what this does... but I thought it re-ran inetd? After I typed what DrTebi suggested... I no longer got the intial error. It seems i'm able to connect... but I get one of two errors...when I enter a password when su'ed in as root I get this error: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an invalid share name) When I use type "smbclient //(hostname)/public -U (different user)" I get: session setup failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.) I've used the "smbpasswd -a 'username'" to register an account... so i'm confused why I get the latter... as for the former error... i'm just confused... When I ran "testparm" I didn't get any errors. Anymore guidance? -Sameer --- DrTebi <drtebi@yahoo.com> wrote: > - is inetd running? > - did you restart inetd/gave it a "HUP"?
