I'm trying to use Samba to transfer some pictures on my local network from one of my Linux machines to my windows XP one. I set up the Samba Server using Yast. The output from 'testparm /etc/samba/smb.conf' is good. My Global parameters are: [global] workgroup = MYHOME netbios name = MYSAMBASERVER map to guest = Bad User username map = /etc/samba/smbusers printcap cache time = 750 printcap name = cups add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s When I run smbclient to list my shares I get this: # smbclient -L Linux Error connecting to 127.0.0.2 (Connection refused) Connection to Linux failed I get this as root and my normal self on the same machine the server is on. I turned the firewall off. My /etc/samba/smbusers file: # This file allows you to map usernames from the clients to the server. # Unix_name = SMB_name1 SMB_name2 ... # # See section 'username map' in the manual page of smb.conf for more # information. root = administrator ;nobody = guest pcguest smbguest Any ideas why my connection is being refused? Also, anyone know how to access this samba share from the windows side? Thanks, Jerome
