I just wanted to pass my solution to this problem along unless anybody else gets hung up on this one. I posted this same message on comp.os.linux.networking and here's the response I got: You are probably setting up a firewall which is restricting input and output from your ethernet interface (e.i. eth0). If you want to get both working, make sure your ipfwadm commands do not start with anything like: ipfwadm -O or ipfwadm -I Just use the ipfwadm -F command and make sure your defaults for ipfwadm -O and ipfwadm -I is set to "accept". Henry So I entered the commands: ipfwadm -O -p accept ipfwadm -I -p accept and now everything works fine.

I know there was a recent thread about this but a looked through the archive and didn't see any resolve. >Here's what happens - I can start ppp and samba works fine. As soon as I set the rules with ipfwadm I am unable to see my linux partitions from my NT machine. If I do a "samba status" on the linux box it says that smbd and nmbd are running. However if I do a samba restart the services are stopped but fail to restart. > >BTW - my setup is RH5 with kernel 2.0.33 and I'm running KDE. > >Thanks, > >Jim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For daily digest info, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
