I am trying to setup tunneling samba over ssh. I followed all the steps on the samba howto page. Then, things worked quite smoothly until I tried "net view 127.0.0.1". I get "System Error 53 has occurred". Here's what I did:
I have linux server running samba 2.2.8a and windows XP as client machine. @ In windows, disabled file and printer sharing and enabled LMHOSTS lookup. @ In windows, created lmhosts with '127.0.0.1 fakename' @ In widnows, ran ssh client with local forwarding. 139 localhost:139 @ In linux, I can telnet to 127.0.0.1 139 @ In windows, I can telnet to 127.0.0.1 139. If I run 'netstat -tn | grep 139' from ssh client, I get something like: $ netstat -tn | grep 139 tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:139 127.0.0.1:2708 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:2708 127.0.0.1:139 ESTABLISHED @ If I run 'net view fakename' from cmd window I get: System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found. -- Adlar -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
