Hi,
I am trying to install a samba server and browse it through a win2000 machine.Since it is in testing stage now ,i have removed all security features.There is already a wide area network and i am trying to install my samba server in it.So that i can browse samba server through other win machines.Do i need a special permission from windows administrator for it.Does he(win administrator) need to allow my samba server machine into the win network.
The problem is, I can see my samba server but cannot browse it.
I went through the samba diagnostic list.At the stage of nmblookup,the diagnostic fails.There is a router or a machine somewhere in the windows network(with a specific IP) were all other windows systems are registered.The namblookupo goes there and finds all( windows) machines but cannot find my samba machine.(I used nmblookup -d 2'*' command for it).In the win machine's lmhosts and hosts files i have put the samba server's IP and name.Thanking you.
With Regards Pravin Chaubey
