Hi I need help on this one, My main problem is that I do not know anything about networking and therefore I'm lost.
A rough outline of what I have (No Windows): Domain/workgroup = STARTREK Machine 1 named "Hal", PentiumPro 200 128MB RAM��IP-192.168.2.37 Running OS/2 Warp 4.0 FP10 (also dual Boot eCS 1.1, seldom used) 3COM 10 MHz NIC IBMLAN 'peer 2 peer' In between: SMC 'barricade 7004BR' 4 port Hub/switch/router��IP-192.168.2.1 Output to a cable modem. Machine 2 named R2D2, AMD Athalon�1GHz�512�MB�RAM��IP-192.168.2.10 Running Mandrakelinux 10.0 OE (also dual Boot Mandrakelinux 9.2) 3COM 100MHz NIC Samba (3.0.2a)/ LinNeighborhood The problem, I believe is software configuration. I have been thru Mandrake (samba) in the last couple weeks and can ping either machine or the router by IP address or by name. In Mandrake I have 2 folders set up that should be visable in OS/2 Warp. The most recent error message is in OS/2 "NET2453 - The domain controller for this domain cannot be found". OS/2 Warp 4 was installed when it first came out (1996 ?) and has been upgraded thru several fixpacks since then FP10 being the latest. This is the third machine it has been on, always moved by tape (backup). About 5 or 6 years ago Win NT was networked with it,so there maybe incorrect entries and/or no entries in some places that I still haven't found.I have 2 partitions in the Shared Resources and Connection area that should be available to Samba. Can I recruit anyone to act as a coach/ ? /consultant? After I get the network up I would like to put my printer on the Barricade, now it is on a A/B switch TIA -- Don't be grumpy, be nice BillM -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
