Hi people: I recently installed a Samba 4.0.3 server in a small company. Users are still working as a workgroup -not as a NT nor ADS domain yet- using Windows XP and Windows 7. Everything seems to be working fine except for one thing: Windows clients can't find the samba server from the Windows Network Places (My Network Places -> Entire Network -> ...). It just appears the rest of Windows machines but not the samba server.
Samba server only becomes accesible if I try to access to it directly using "Start -> Run -> \\netbiosname". This didn't happen when I had Samba 3.x. I tried from a windows command line something like this: C:\> nbtstat -a netbiosname C:\> nbtstat -c Those commands shown above give me the right netbios name and ip address of my samba server. Even when Windows client use the IP address of my samba4 server as a unique DNS address things doesn't seem to get fixed. Anyway if windows client are still working just as a workgroup I think DNS server in this case isn't important. By the way, nobody use WINS here. Do you know what could cause this problem? I hope someone can give me some ideas. Thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
