Hi I hope you could help me. I don't get any answer i the newsgroups. I have a Win NT box as a PDC and running the linux box as a domain member. I have updated to Samba 3 on linux box. I joined the domain with no errors. Everything works fine from another NT box that I have I can browse the linux box shares and so on. But if I do the same thing from the Win98 machine I get this error messages "The network name cannot be found"��I�can ping the win98 box from the linux box both with name and ip adress and that works the other way as well. Could someone help me with the problem? I get no error messages in the Samba log files. I'm running Gentoo and samba-3.0.2a-r2. I have followed the checklist on this page and everything seems OK �http://se.samba.org/samba/docs/man/howto/diagnosis.html� �Below�is�the�relevant�part�of�my�smb.conf� �

Answer: Yes Can you browse other (NT) shares from that machine? Answer: Yes Do you get the error when you try to access a share on the linux box or when you try to access the box to get a list of available shares? Answer If I do like this from the win98 machine try start>run \\name.of the.samba.server\share I get an extended error message If I try to access the linux box by clicking Network and then click the icon of the linux box I get the "The network name cannot be found" error message. I found something in the samba log files! if I'm running it like this start>run \\name.of the.samba.server\share In the log file for the NT machine ( which work) it says [2004/05/23 19:07:15, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(705) server1 (192.168.1.10) signed connect to service ville initially as user ville (uid=1000, gid=100) (pid 4371) and on the Win98 box I get an extended error occured message and in the samba log file (/var/log/samba/log.oden) for the Win98 box it says [2004/05/23 18:51:15, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(705) oden (192.168.1.35) connect to service ville initially as user ville (uid=1000, gid=100) (pid 4325) [2004/05/23 18:51:15, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(887) oden (192.168.1.35) closed connection to service ville the only difference I can se is that the connection directly closes. Everything worked before the upgrade when I was running Samba 2.2.8 Please help or advice //BR Niclas -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
