samba is installed i didnt change samba in any way an I have 2 windoz boxes and both have shared files they talk to each
other and fc7 did to |
Check the "workgroup = " line in your smb.conf file. You may not have changed it from the default.
Also, check the samba log. It may give a non-generic error message pinpointing the problem. You might also want to look at this thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...pgrade-335899/ |
Each one of those commands were meant to be run one at a time. If samba is not installed then install it with yum install samba. Afterwards, as jschiwal says, edit the workgroup line in /etc/samba/smb.conf. It needs to reflect the name of your workgroup. Then chkconfig --level 35 smb on and chkconfig --level 35 nmb on. Now browse for your windows share. smbtree should also show cyclone.
|
I did do them one at a time
and the workgroup matches windows and chkconfig: command not found [root@localhost cuda]# yum install samba livna 100% |=========================| 2.1 kB 00:00 fedora 100% |=========================| 2.1 kB 00:00 updates 100% |=========================| 2.3 kB 00:00 Setting up Install Process Parsing package install arguments Package samba - 3.0.28-0.fc8.i386 is already installed. Nothing to do under system/services/smb and/nmb are running |
and smbtree

OK, change /etc/samba/smb.conf so the workgroup says whatever your workgroup is. Mine is JOHNSON, my last name. Here's my smb.conf:
Code:
[glenn@toshiba ~]$ cat /etc/samba/smb.conf |
my windows workgroup is MYGROUP
they match do you think could be the same reason the chkconfig isnt working if I go to my network I can see my windows box and in windows I can see my linux box just cant access them the windows error message is cant access might not have permission in linux Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "Windows Network: cyclone". |
Try /sbin/chkconfig. If that doesn't work try it as root.
|
ok this is what i get

yeah that works

OK, time for /sbin/chkconfig --level35 smb on and /sbin/chkconfig --level35 nmb on, then see what's up with your browsing.

Nah. My bad there. You need to use sudo, sudo /sbin/chkconfig --level 35 smb on or run the command as root. Same for nmb. Sorry. Also, there's a space between the word level and the numbers 35.
|
ok this is wild if I use the command sudo /sbin/chkconfig --level 35 smb on
it asks for my password and it wont accept it is says thais incorrect then if I log in to root and use the command sudo /sbin/chkconfig --level 35 smb on nothing happens Quote:
|
Nothing happens because running the command as root worked. Try, as root, /sbin/chkconfig --list smb. It should show on for level 3 and 5.
|
One thing you also need to do is to run "smbpasswd -a <username>" to add the same username and password that exists in windows. There needs to be a one-to-one mapping between the windows user and the samba user.
Also, check your logs for selinux. You may want to check what it's configuration says for samba. |
yeah it did

I got windows to tell me that "you were not connected because a duplicate name exists" I changed the name of my win box with no help but when I changed the name of my fedora box it made it so that I can access my shared files from windows on my fedora box so I ca live with it this way however I like it when I can access my win box from fedora I will check windows again and see if its something there will update if I find something |
I was having the same problem with the latest version of Solaris 10. The fix for me was to put the netbios name and IP address of the workgroup master browser into the /etc/hosts file of the Solaris machine.
I have several PCs, running various versions of Linux, Solaris and Windows, on my home network. I'm connected to the Internet through a DSL router that does NAT and acts as a DHCP server. It gives it's own address to it's clients as a DNS server. Then, forwards lookup requests to my ISP's DNS servers. Unfortunately, it doesn't resolve the names of the machines on my local network. It passes queries to my ISP even if one of my computers is looking for the address of another. Of course, my ISP knows knows nothing of my internal network and the lookup fails. What appears to be happening with this version of Samba is that it's using DNS to get the IP address of the workgroup master browser after finding the name. If that fails, you get the error message. All my PCs showed up in the Nautilus browser after I put the master browser's address into the /etc/hosts file. Since it's possible for any of the Windows PCs to be the master browser I reserved all their addresses and put them all in the /etc/hosts file. |
