Travis, try these test as well:
At the sambe server find out which processes smbd and nmbd are running,
i.e. ps ax | grep [ns]mbd
Use the two base daemons numbers, in my case processes 1815 and 1817 to
test if the server is listening i.e.:
# netstat -apn | grep 181[57]
Here is what my samba server returns:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:139 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1817/smbd
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:445 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1817/smbd
udp 0 0 192.168.0.3:137 0.0.0.0:* 1815/nmbd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:137 0.0.0.0:* 1815/nmbd
udp 0 0 192.168.0.3:138 0.0.0.0:* 1815/nmbd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:138 0.0.0.0:* 1815/nmbd
unix 2 [ ] DGRAM 3524 1817/smbd
unix 2 [ ] DGRAM 3520 1815/nmbd
Last but not leat, a simple telnet test on the samba server:
$ echo "hello" | telnet localhost 139
If you see the last lines:
*Connected* to localhost. Escape character is '^]'.
*Connection* *closed* by foreigh host.
then smbd is functioning properly.
However, if you see
*Connection* *refused*
then smbd is not working as it should.
Have you re-started samba? # /etc/init.d/samba restart
