Hi list, and happy new year :)
Finally I had some times to sit and learn SAMBA a bit.. (i'm using the Oraily
book which seems a good book), and I have a small problem...
I have set up a small "network" as follows:
My Linux machine with (with ethenet) IP: 192.168.1.1
My "Windows" machine with VMWare: 192.168.1.2
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.252
Default Gateway: (to both "machines") 192.168.1.1
Here is my very simple smb.conf file:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.1.3 (192.168.1.3)
# Date: 2000/01/01 03:09:22
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = SIMPLE
encrypt passwords = Yes
wins support = Yes
[test]
comment = This is a test
path = /export/samba/test
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
My problem is as follows:
I can goto my windows "machine" and use the command "net use k:
\\192.168.1.1\test" - and it will connect the virtual machine to the linux
share, BUT I cannot see it on my "network neighbourhood" (yes, both of the
machines are in the same workgroup)
If it helps - here is the output from the command: smbclient -U% -L 192.168.1.2
(the windows machine):
> smbclient -U% -L 192.168.1.2
Added interface ip=127.0.0.1 bcast=127.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0
session request to 192.168.1.2 failed
Domain=[SIMPLE] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
