Right so those other details are kind of useful... Distro: SuSE 9.1 from ps: root 7464 0.0 0.5 8744 2704 ? Ss Aug10 0:00 /usr/sbin/smbd -D -s /etc/samba/smb.conf I have tried to connect both from my XP Pro desktop, and OS X iBook. Both have failed utterly. I haven't thought to look in the logs *kicking-self*. I don't have time now, but thanks for reminding me I'll get to that soon.

Do you see samba actually running in ps output? What distro is this? Is there anything releveant in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/samba/log.{s,n}mbd ? How are you trying to connect? Any other relevant info would be great. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- | Stephen Gran | Anyone who stands out in the middle of | | steve@lobefin.net | a road looks like roadkill to me.=20 | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | -- Linus Torvalds | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
