Subject: [suse-linux-uk-schools] Starting Samba

I've got a bit of time to play with my Linux box again.

I cant even get Samba started.

According to usingsamba.pdf I need to start two daemons.

# /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -D
# /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd -D

I installed Samba from Yast, SuSE 6.3 but these commands fail with
the message:
No such file or directory.

Also, when I run smbstatus I get an error:
Couldnt open status file /var/lock/samba/STATUS..LCK

Could anyone advise?

regards
Richard
