I'm stumped on getting Samba to work again on our small network. I've
got one Windows 95 machine that started to refuse to talk to Samba last
week. I *was* running one of the 1.9.18 releases, but when it stopped
working, I figured I would delete the old release and do a clean
install of 2.0.3. I've done that, and used SWAT to configure the
smb.conf file (which can be seen below). testparm smb.conf did not
return any errors.
I believe the problem is on the Windows side of things, but I don't
know where.
Some data on the setup:
Samba 2.0.3 running under FreeBSD 2.2.8-STABLE
Local network is 192.168.1.*
Samba server (AKA GATEWAY, AKA SERVER): 192.168.1.3
Windows machine (AKA LINDA): 192.168.1.7
Samba is set to be a WINS server and LINDA points to it.
lmhosts set to the above IPs.
Using DIAGNOSIS.txt, I can get to TEST 5, where by I get the following:
gateway# nmblookup -B LINDA '*'
Added interface ip=192.168.1.3 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Sending queries to 192.168.1.7
name_query failed to find name *
TEST 4 shows Samba running:
gateway# nmblookup -B SERVER __SAMBA__
Added interface ip=192.168.1.3 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Sending queries to 0.0.0.0
Got a positive name query response from 127.0.0.1 ( 192.168.1.3 )
192.168.1.3 __SAMBA__<00>
TEST 8 also fails with an Error 51.
Do I need to set Samba as the Domain Master Browser to get this to
work? (It's not been this much trouble before! I "dislike"
windows...)
See below the smb.conf, log.smb and log.nmb files (Debug level 2).
