Hi Doug

I Wonder whether the smbd service is set to start at boot. Maybe setting up the share starts the services (smbd and nmbd) but they are not set to start on boot. I am not using fedora - but on Centos 5, these services do not start at boot by default.
In the graphical interface you might want to try something like:
System/administration/server settings/services and check that smb is checked in runlevel 5 (or whatever)

I actually use webmin to provide a more consistent graphical management tool - and would highly recommend it if you don't like command line stuff.

Regards
Richard.

I'm running Samba on Fedora 8.  Using the graphical interface, only.

(Samba Server Configuration Tool 1.2.58)

I can create a share, and use it from either Windows or Linux.

If I re-boot the computer, the share does not get re-activated (It is still shown on the Configuration Tool Window).

If I delete the share and re-create it, all is good. Is there a way to get a share to persist past a re-boot?



Thanks,

Doug
