They are running SMB over TCP/IP and not over NetBuei, correct? If not you'd better get your M$ network switched over to TCP/IP ---------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Wilson System Administrator Cedar Creek Software http://www.cedarcreeksoftware.com Central Texas IT http://www.centraltexasit.com

Turn off the ME machine and see if everything works. Then everything does work you still may have a problem getting the ME machine back onto the network. Try shutting the network down and start the ME first. The procedure sounds crazy, but something in ME does not like SAMBA. I have not seriously looked into it further, but if I were you I would try making SAMBA work without the ME machine on the net. Get everything else working first and then screw around with the ME and see if you can figure it out later. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jack Malone" To: ; Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2001 6:03 PM Subject: Re: [SLE] linneighborhood

Yes ya right. I had troubles too. I made a few changes in my /etc/smb.conf file that helped. I am not running ME anymore so I can't be of much help with it.

I run samba to authenicate network users, in fact windoze wil not allow use of wife's pc unless they are authenicated via lan. So, some of these setting s may not apply for you. Neevertheless, here they are.

os level = 65 # the default is lower. With a higher value here it will enable samba to beat out a windoze machine (even on a perr to peer setup). wins support = yes

The client machines have "Use Wins" set to yes and the ip addy of the samba server in the list. Interesting thing is I never had to do this prior to ME and samba 2.10

TO other samba users out there: Are any of you using user level shares on windoze? I can seem to get it working with my smb.conf I'm set for security = user and local master = yes Any of ya can provide suggestions I'm appreciative.
