RE: [Samba] Netbios ?
All, I appreciate everyone's suggestions. I am getting closer. I am able to pull up \\fcohpc from Start, Run, and the Samba server shows me what available directories are listed. However, when I go to click on a directory or try to Map Network Drive and enter the username/password as different user, the directory hangs and I receive a NOT RESPONDING. Does anyone know what I can do from this point now?

[Samba] Netbios ?
I am trying a netstat | grep netbios and receive nothing back. I tried netstat | grep 139 and nothing as well. I have the correct netbios ports in /etc/services. Does anyone know to make this show up with a netstat or have those services running? I believe this may be my problem with the mapping of samba shares to the client.

[Samba] Mapping Problem
All, The Windows 2000 client is on my side of the firewall (the error message is: remote computer is not available), the Windows XP client is on the other side of the firewall, (the error message is: The specified network name is no longer available). I am able to ping both the IP address and server name of the CIFS/Samba server. I cannot perform the mapping, via Map Drive, then I connect as different user name and I enter a user id that I setup with smbpasswd (testcifs). Then I receive both these messages, I have searched message lists and the web for documentation on these errors, and I am unable to find anything that works. I seen a document that said if you could ping, then the next thing was to setup lmhosts on the client, which I did, that still does not work, so there may be some configuration problem of some sort. I appreciate your help very much. -Dan -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

If it is not on your side of the firewall get something to map to (even another client with sharing enabled). If this does not work then it's time to look for basic things like having an IP address. I hope you are not trying to browse for a server to connect to. Browsing will not work over routers or firewalls. For my remote office users I have to give them a name in DNS because browsing does not work. The problem here is that browsing works via broadcast and routers and firewalls do not repeat broadcasts.

You need to talk to the firewall admin to find out what the firewall rules are and what is blocking you. Keep in mind that M$ filesharing is inherently insecure and there may be good reasons for not letting sharing go thru the firewall. I was going to recommend you try mapping to a windows server on the other side of the firewall. Good thing you already tried that. Next try mapping a drive to a windows server on your side of the firewall. If it works then no question that the firewall is the culprit.

If you get the smb :\ prompt, it means you're in, but only from the localhost. You can now do dir stuff to play and exit by typing the quit command. Now try this: smbclient //fcohpc/eas2 -U testcifs If you still get the prompt, fine. Now try connecting from the XP box, but make sure you select the 'Connect as a different user' checkbox. Then fill in your testcifs userid password. If this doesn't work, you may actually be blocked by a firewall, you can probably verify this with your network administrator. It may be that your own Unix box has a firewall builtin blocking the NetBIOS traffic (usually port 137 - 139). You may have to check it (e.g. iptables -L, ...). However, my previous comments about Samba
