I am unable to find my Windows XP share (winpro) in Linneighborhood which runs on my desktop Kubuntu Linux box.

When I try to mount that Windows XP share I get the error message:
2139: session request to WINPRO failed (Not listening on called name)
2139: session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Not listening on called name)
SMB connection failed
smbmt: Error: winpro _not_ mounted.

The command line I'm using to mount Winpro is:
    smbmount //winpro/lba  /mnt/winpro  -o guest,uid=lba

This line _used_ to work before I had a malfuntion on the winpro box and had to Repair XP. Repair is similiar to a fresh install except many (but not all) settings are kept.

Both winpro and the Kubuntu box are on the same workgroup and subnet
with fixed IP.

Why is the winpro machine "not listening on called name" ?

I've been working on this a couple of days and suspect something in the Windows XP configuration but haven't made any headway.

Are you sure, that you named that winxp box "winpro"?
Inside a windows cmdline window, use "nbtstat -n" to view the
registered netbios names. Also have a look whether the workgroup matches.

Btw - using 'smbclient -L winpro -U<username>%<password>' is an easier
way to check for availability of that remote box.

Also 'smbtree' can help to diagnose that problem.

Cheers, Günter

Thanks very much for your reply Günter.

Clicking on Control Panel >System >Properties shows
'Full computer name' winpro
and Workgroup LANET
as expected.

nbstat -n from winpro command prompt
gives an error message
"Failed to access NBT driver"

smbtree gives a full screen of shares from other computers
but nothing from winpro.  The shares list other windows 98 computers.

smbclient -L winpro -U<username>%<password>
gives a '>' prompt that I can't do anything with
except to re-enter my password.
I then get
"session request to WINPRO failed (Not listening on called name)
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Not listening on called name)"


smbclient -L winpro -U<username>
session request to WINPRO failed (Not listening on called name)
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Not listening on called name)


Some notes:
My username and password is the same on both machines.

The WXP computer has Service Pack 1 and 2.

I can connect to shares on other machines from winpro.

Larry

Have you enabled "NetBIOS over tcp/ip" in the tcp/ip settings
of your network interface? I think, it's placed in the
WINS tab dialog page.

Cheers, Günter

Just looked again Günter.
Yes, "NetBIOS over tcp/ip" is checked.

Also iptables on the Linux machine is wide open (all policies ACCEPT).
The entire internal LAN is behind a router/firewall of course.

Larry

Then i don't understand the result from one of your recent posts:
    nbstat -n from winpro command prompt
    gives an error message
    "Failed to access NBT driver"

Btw - it should read "nbtstat -n" (sorry, my fault)

Cheers, Günter

Sorry Günter but I made a mistake with nbtstat -n.
On winpro there was an old copy of nbtstat in a directory from Windows 98 but on my path.

I renamed _that_ nbtstat and then
which nbtstat
found the real nbtstat in \windows\system32.

What does this result show for my problem?

Larry

Have a look here how netbios names are registered and
what kind of resource type is used - the <00> or <1E>
in your output.

Your windows box has not registered the name WINPRO<20>,
so it seems to me, that the peer/server service is not
running ...
Btw, 'nmblookup -S winpro' (done on your samba box) should also
list the registered names.

Inside a windows cmdline console, does 'net share' list your
exports? 'net statistics server' should also list some info.

Cheers, Günter


Hello Günter

I'm not sure what to make of the url you sent me
but here is the results of all the tests you suggested.

BTW, not only does winpro not show in Linneighborhood
but it doesn't show in Network Neighborhood on a Win 98 box.
