[Samba] Connection not possible
Hi, I have SAMBA 3.0.10 running on my Mandrake 10.1. Everything seemed to work fine until this afternoon, but I'm no longer able to connect to the SAMBA server from my PC. The error I get when I tried connecting using the name and/or the IP address is: The specified network name is no longer available. I checked for the presence of SMBD and NMBD daemons and found them to be up and running. All that happened before things stopped working was a reboot of the Linux system. Any suggestions to diagnose the problem would be appreciated. The WINS server is available on the N/W.

[Samba] Problems while installing...
Hi, I have two Linux systems, one running FC2 and the other Mandrake 10.1. When I tried installing Samba 3.0.11 on both the systems, I get the following error: # rpm -i samba-3.0.11-1.i386.rpm samba-common-3.0.11-1.i386.rpm warning: samba-3.0.11-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID f17f9772 error: Failed dependencies: liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by samba-3.0.11-1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by samba-3.0.11-1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by samba-common-3.0.11-1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by samba-common-3.0.11-1 Any suggestions on how to fix these and go ahead with the installation?

RE: [Samba] Issues with de-installation...
Hi, Given below is the output of the command execution: $ /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd -b | grep smb.conf CONFIGFILE: /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf What does this imply? I'm coming to realize that installing samba via RPMs does a lot more than installing samba using images via make install does. Or that I need spend some extra time making the system aware of this unconventional installation...
