Failed to open byte range locking database
ERROR: Failed to initialise locking database
Can't initialise locking module - exiting

Try running 'smbclient -L localhost'

This has helped me in the past. It seems to initialize the databases that smbstatus looks at.

However When
I click on accessing linux I get resource not
available.

From win2k does 'net view \\linux' show you anything? That should list the

available shares. If not, then it would seem that name resolution is the problem. Try 'net view ip.of.linux' If samba is happy, that should show you the shares.

Also, make sure that the RH8 does not have the firewalling enabled. As root 'service iptables stop' should turn it off. Then try the access from the w2k box. If that works, then you will need to create firewall rules for samba traffic. Much has been posted about that in the past.
