Hi, Well, I am not too sure what exactly do you mean by Samba is not running, but here's a couple of things that hopefully could help you... -Are you able to use nmblookup <name of client> i.e: nmblookup myName it should return an ip address of your machine with myName as following: www.xxx.yyy.zzz. myName<00> -Did you set the "hosts allow" correctly? Else it will deny basically all connections. -Did you read the documentation for encryption? There is some problem with the encrypted password and MS machines. -Check the samba page, at www.samba.org, and under their documentation section, there is this thing call "diagnostic." -did you start smbd and nmbd correctly? -is the client set correctly? (for MS machines, you need Client for MS network) well, I hope this helps...
