Let's see I've got a network about 10 PCs running XP and 1 running Linux. I had setup Samba and it was running like a charm. XP pcs could access linux box through network neighborhood and access 2 shared dir and edit/change files.
Really not sure what has gone wrong. I am using Samba 2.2.8a
I run both smbd and nmbd as daemons. When I run ps -aux they show up.
root 1553 0.0 0.1 4664 1788 ? S 14:34 0:00 /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -D root 1555 0.0 0.1 3668 1652 ? S 14:34 0:00 /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd -D root 1556 0.0 0.1 3616 1380 ? S 14:34 0:00 /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd -D
When I run netstat -a .... looks like netbios-ssn is set to LISTEN. Also netbios-ssn is defined as 139 in /etc/services
[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# netstat -a Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 *:32768 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:swat *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:32773 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:netbios-ssn *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:sunrpc *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:x11 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 localhost.localdom:smtp *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 boslinux:32869 cs52.msg.sc5.yahoo:5050 ESTABLISHED udp 0 0 *:32768 *:* udp 0 0 boslinux:netbios-ns *:* udp 0 0 *:netbios-ns *:* udp 0 0 boslinux:netbios-dgm *:* udp 0 0 *:netbios-dgm *:* udp 0 0 *:sunrpc *:* Active UNIX domain sockets (servers and established)
Everything looks good. But when I run smbclient I get ....
[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient -L localhost added interface ip=192.168.1.80 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 timeout connecting to 127.0.0.1:139 Error connecting to 127.0.0.1 (Operation already in progress) Connection to localhost failed
I had this problem and actually uninstalled all Samba RPM packages and then
installed all over again using latest.tar.gz
hosts.allow file is set to ALL:ALL and nothing in hosts.deny
no firewall settings
The ultimate problem is that my XP PCs can see my linux pc (boslinux) but can't connect to it when I double-click on it in Network Neighborhood ... error is ...
"\\Boslinux is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource ... The network path is not found."
SAMBA is working to some degree ... the pcs can see the linux box name in network neighborhood. If I edit smb.conf and change workgroups the pcs eventually see the linux box in the new workgroup (although we have too many hubs and there is a long latency issue).
Misc notes ...
=> I've rebooted both Linux and XP machines many times
=> SWAT takes forever when clicking on STATUS
=> SWAT server status shows nmbd: running => BUT smbd: not running EVEN THOUGH smbd is running when using ps -aux ????????
=> At DOS prompt $ pind boslinux returns fine
Also sometimes this error occurs when the PC tries to simply access it's own workgroup !!!! However they do eventually recover and can access other PCs and directories !!!!!!!!
Here's my smb.conf file ....
