Are there IP numbering problems to expect? Samba is just a set of services that run over TCP/IP. You need to configure your TCP/IP networking correctly. Samba can not correct bad TCP/IP configuration. > It still does not work, the XP stations don't see anything (net view, or > in Network Neighbourhood).

If both network cards are installed in your Samba server, then each network card must be configured for a different subnet. For example: CardIP Address Network --- -- --- eth0192.168.0.1 192.168.0.0/24 eth1192.168.1.0 192.168.1.0/24 > The server works only as file server, the stations need to read and > write shared files on it, not recognise each other - in fact, they > should not.

http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf It might help you. If not, tell us what we left out or what is not clear. Most of it applies to Samba-2.2.x, but I'd advise you to update to samba-3.0.x anyhow. - John T. That was helpful, thanks! Looked through it and tried it out: wins support = yes domain master browser = true local master browser = true preferred master browser = yes remote announce = 192.168.0.255 How do I define the two subnets, is this a samba or a linux networking issue? Are there IP numbering problems to expect? It still does not work, the XP stations don't see anything (net view, or in Network Neighbourhood). NMBD on 'server' calls for election of local master browser, triggered by call from 'st06', the one station connected through the eth1 (a 10B100 onboard ethernet, with IP 192.168.0.10). The other stations, connected through eth0 (a BNC ethernet PCI card, with IP 192.168.0.1) are well. The server works only as file server, the stations need to read and write shared files on it, not recognise each other - in fact, they should not. I should read through the doccumentation again!

Dan, Don, >if you have applied the SignOrSeal registry hack, you should be >able to get your XP Home system to see Samba shares. You will be >prompted for a user name and password to access these shares. I applied the SignOrSeal registry change manually, but still no shares. Until now, in smb.conf there was security = user set, so there was no domain logon by the WIN98 stations either. Reading the text in http://samba.kn.vutbr.cz/samba/devel/docs/html/domain-member.html: if I only want to share shares, files and printers, let people read and write, is domain logon really needed? Aparently, until now there was none. [global] workgroup = BAERSCH netbios name = server security = user os level = 65 ... In fact, the problem might be related to the fact that the running win98 stations are still connected to the BNC ethernet card in the server, without any WINS server installed, whereas I need to connect the XP stations to another card. Perhaps I should upgrade to 2.2.8a, and then set up a WINS server - any suggestions where I find documentation on this?

RE: [Samba] XP Home and Samba? and: two network cards?
Markus, if you have applied the SignOrSeal registry hack, you should be able to get your XP Home system to see Samba shares. You will be prompted for a user name and password to access these shares. You will never get your XP Home system to become a member of your Samba domain. Since you cannot authenticate to the Samba domain using an XP Home system, there are no credentials to send to Samba to verify permissions to the share and you will have to provide a user name and password to access them.

We wanted to replace some old desktops with new ones and bought them with XP home installed. While they can see the other win98 machines on the network - and these machines still work with the server - they do not see the samba server. I used the same settings as with Win98, same IP, same gateway, same workgroup, only that XP does not accept a username identical to the machine name. Is it right that only XP pro works with Samba?
