Newbie Here. The name of my linux machine is linuxbox. I am unable
to ping this machine from that very machine. I tried the following:
ping linuxbox
and
ping localhost
neither of which worked.

Here is the info. Looks like the machine is named Sandstorm instead of
Linuxbox. Sandstorm is what I had intended the workgroup name to be
for my network. Can I change this so that the computername is
Linuxbox?
Linuxbox:/home/brent# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain
Ok, newbie here so go easy on me.
In general, what type of files would I expect to find in the /etc
directory? How would I have known to look in the /etc directory for
the hosts file?

grep -i -l Sandstorm /etc/* lists only the /etc/hosts file.
grep -i -l Linuxbox /etc/* lists /etc/hostname and /etc/motd.
I changed the /etc/hosts file so that the localhost is now Linuxbox,
ran hostname -F /etc/hosthame and now I am able to ping Linuxbox.

I have a cable modem connected to a router that connects to a Windows
XP machine and my Debian linux machine. Internet on the Windows XP
machine is extremely fast and the Debian machine is slower than dial up
(no joke! night and day difference!) What is wrong with the Debian
machine?

Here is what I get when I do the tests. It takes a long time to ping
google and yahoo. Telnet didn't work with google or yahoo and it was
extremely slow also. Don't know about the ipv6 packet or where to
look. I'll check into it or if you have more info that you could give
me it would be

Ok. It seems that the internet is extremely fast when I use Mozilla
and extremely slow when I use Konqueror. I am still unable to telnet

I've seen your ping results. Better than
my probes.
To debug this issue, power down all devi-
ces. Computers, router, modem.
Ok I have my debian machine connected to a XP machine through a router.
I have made several attemps to install samba using apt-get and I have
modified the smb.conf on several occations. My first thought was to
start with a fresh reinstall of Samba so that I could start with the
original smb.conf

Let's back up a few steps. Should I be able to see the other computers
on the Network before I install SAMBA?

Alright, I have made a simple smb.conf file as follows.
###
[global]
# Server configuration paramaters
netbios name = LINUXBOX
server string = Samba %v on (%L)
workgroup = SANDSTORM
encrypt passwords = yes
[data]
path

Newbie here. I have a home network with a XP machine and a Debian
machine connected through a router. I have not set Static IP's on
either machine. I am trying to connect these machines with samba, and

Yes, both computers are a member of the SANDSTORM workgroup.
I added security = shared to my global section. No change.

try it using username linuxbox\brent without the quotes. security as
user
I tried linuxbox\brent with security as share. No Change.
Changed smb.conf so that security = user, ran smbd -D nmbd -D.
Still no Change.

Here is my latest from the command line. Looks like the problem is a
user and password problem.
###
Linuxbox:/home/brent# smbclient -L linuxbox
Password:
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
Linuxbox:/home/brent# smbclient -L linuxbox -U brent
Password:
Forgive me, but I'm new and don't know how to set up the smbpasswd file
other than the smbpasswd program. Is there maybe a template somewhere.
Thanks
