No, there are more. I have had a series of domestic health problems ( Lynda has just had 4 rotten teeth out and then the bleeding didn't stop we had to get her into the Dental Dept. at the hospital. So that blew away my visit to St. Albans on Tuesday. Then to cap it all off, my laptop has thrown a seriously intermittent heat sensitive sickie. Fortunately just a few days before the guarantee period runs out. However, I have a put all the Distros on my lappie and an external drive. I intend to get them all over there asap, where asap is not fully defined. :-) If not, is PC Linux on there? After all of that, Yes PCLinuxOS is in the set of Distros which will be on the machine. Very nice too if my half hour of playing is anything to go by. Please find the list of Distro files in the attachment. There may be a few more, because I don't know what Wesley had done. -- Clinersterton beademung, with all of love - RIP James Blish - Gaul is quartered into three halves.

But it won't go in Caledonian until the session's finished - that way I won't be arguing with Caledonian and neglecting my customers at one and the same time. ;) Wesley Parish -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell Sharpened hands are happy hands.

Help: weird conflict problem with DHCP assigned IP addresses and Samba
I've had a strange problem since I upgraded from Ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10. All of a sudden my Samba network stopped working - specifically, computers in the workgroup stopped being visible, no longer appearing in Windows networking, or on linux clients. After a very large number of hours trying to figure it out I stumbled on what was causing the problem, but I still don't know how to fix it. The problem occurs the moment I have one or more computers assigned an IP by DHCP. As soon as a DHCP network address is assigned the Samba network disappears. The shares are still directly accessible in windows: i.e.: //servername/myshare But the shares can not be browsed on linux / windows computers. When I change them all to static IP's the network appears. So there seems to be a definitely problem between Samba and DHCP when IPs are assigned. I've tried everything I can think of and can't find anything useful (to me) in the logs. I would prefer to have DHCP working alongside Samba. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

You didn't start dhcp on your pc as part of the upgrade did you... so you've now got multiple dhcp servers have you, or has ubuntu decided to use another subnet?

Re: Help: weird conflict problem with DHCP assigned IP addresses and Samba
Hi, DHCP is not putting the names in a local DNS or providing a WINS field it is? Are there multiple entries for the same computer name in the servers dhcp leases file?
