Hi all.. I have a TSL1.5(Trustix Secure Linux) box running kernel 2.2.20 with samba 2.2.5 from the distro itself...
The problem is that all of a sudden, none of the win98SE clients on the network can view the shares or any of the computers on the network. However, the kicker.. all mapped drives still work.. Running net view on the 98SE boxes produces the following: Error 6118: The computer(s) sharing resources in this workgroup cannot be located. The computer(s) might have been restarted. Wait a few minutes, and then try again. If the problem persists, make sure your network-adapter settings are correct. It was also suggested to run nbtstat -R to reload the networking info for the winder boxes but it didnt seem to help.. Well, like I said everything still works except being able to view the network. I use PMFirewall for my Gateway/IPChains and Masquerading and this of course still works fine. I can ping all systems by name, IP and they all resolve using a little shareware windows utility called TJPingPro and doing a sequence scan of my internal subnet... Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.. whether it is a winders problem or soemthing with samba. I did do an update/upgrade to samba about a week ago, but my backup smb.conf makes no difference and all mapped shares in winders still connect right after I loggin... Any ideas greatly appreciated & TIA Bill Day Linux 2.2.20-1tr i586 11:10am up 14 days, 1:06, 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
