btw, for older samba clients, a clumsy work around for "use client
driver = yes" is to specify "print admin = (list of users who can't
connect from NT/2000/XP)."

But since then I've upgraded to the 2.2.5-1 SRPM and now I'm getting the
[2002/07/12 15:16:05, 0] nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c:create_subnets(239)
  create_subnets: No local interfaces !
[2002/07/12 15:16:05, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:main(872)
  ERROR: Failed when creating subnet lists. Exiting.
errors in my nmbd.log, and nmbd promptly dies.  From the linuxvm.org
samba netmask howto link, it talks about modifying the ifup-ctc script
to use a netmask of 255.255.255.255 for ifconfig and 255.255.255.0 for
route add.

I've also seen references on this list to faking out samba in the
smb.conf by specifying the netmask there... maybe by using the
interfaces option?  Which is the prefered method, and what is the
appropriate entry in the smb.conf?

Thanks,
Daniel
