Also a little thingy. Does you FreeBSD 4.2 server resolve its ip adress to a dns record? If not, you might need to add your ipadress and hostname in /etc/hosts, because if the ip adress doesn't resolv smbd will not start. Check /var/log/log.smb for error messages Check also that samba.sh is chmod 0555 and chown to root.wheel (security and automatic startup at boot) To start samba manually you could also use cd /usr/local/etc/rc.d ./samba.sh Just another way to do it. Both ways are correct and have the same outcome.
