Which Windows client version? Solaris 10 has samba 3.0.x as the default version which won't work with Windows 7 (I think it works with Vista with registry tweeks.)

Is the nmbd daemon also running?


What does "net use" should from the command line of the windows machine? You could also try using the "net use ..." command to map the drive from the command line on Windows- it may be more obvious if it fails.

Did the windows machine join the samba domain or is it still in workgroup mode? When in domain mode you should be able to logon to the PC but then not have to provide the info again to access shares on the server (assuming the share and file perms are setup correctly.)

Hi,

try 'smbclient -L //<netbios name> (-U uid) (on the unix machine) to see if there are any shares on the samba server...

Hello,



I am configuring Samba for the first time and I have configured it on a
Solaris 10 server. I believe I have everything setup correctly. The smbd
daemon is running and I performed a test with the smbclient. The problem
I'm now having is from the windows client. From the Windows client I map
a drive, I log in with the user account and passwd, when I click to
connect, I don't get an indication that I have connected to the share or
not. I haven't received an error that it didn't work but I haven't
received access to the Samba share either. Any ideas?



Thanks!
