Thanks for all the suggestions so far. I can log into the server but i still get slow copies and an error in my logs:

2004/01/08 10:25:37, 0] lib/util_sock.c:read_data(436)
  read_data: read failure for 4. Error = Connection reset by peer

ideas?

This should be yes if you want your printers to show up. Otherwise the [printers] share below is there for no reason.

Ok, for now I left this parameter to "no" and removed the printer section


socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

I don't think you need socket options anymore, I could be wrong.

I removed this line



        netbios name = RSB
        server string = RSB Server
        workgroup = RSB

The SMB protocol doesn't allow you to have your machine name the same as your workgroup name. This may be an issue.

k, I renamed them:


netbios name = RSB
server string = RSB Server
workgroup = RSBShared

That's a lot of "valid users". Perhaps you should create a group, just for managability. Not strictly necessary.

This is part of my final configs I have planned. I made two user groups
that will replace the long list above



2. When macintosh and XP users connect all is fine except for
the speed
issue above but when a win2k client tries to connect it
gets an error
that max users/services have been reached.

What's the exact error and how does it present itself? Is it in the event log, or is it a popup dialog type error message?

The error is a popup window on Win2kPro machines:


The network place cannot be added because the following error has
occured:
There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon
request.

Like I said, I'm new but it looks like the server is not broadcasting
itself to the network? The weird thing is some Win2k/XP/Macintosh
machines can connect no problem.

smb.conf

domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
os level = 34 #YMMV
domain logons = yes
wins support = yes # really need to have a WINS Server if you don't
                   # have one, then this PDC should be WINS Server
# or #
wins server = ip.address.of.other.server # need a wins server

On windows computer - either manually or via dhcp, however you
accomplish tcp/ip setup, you should point WINS (netbios) server to the
ip address of the PDC (or other server that is providing WINS)
