Wounded with samba
Hello Everybody
I am really Wounded while playing with samba. Can anybody please help me? I have following setup My linux box Mu colleague's win-me box I have installed samba 2.2.2 on my RH7.1 linux machine. My smb.conf is in /usr/local/samba/lib which reads like # Samba config file # Global parameters [global] workgroup = excelinux netbios name = excelinux server string = %h's Linux Samba Server interfaces = 10.1.1.9 10.1.1.10/24 encrypt passwords = No null passwords = No log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY os level = 99 preferred master = Yes guest account = smbuser hosts allow = 10.1.1. 127. [homes] comment = Home Directories path = %H valid users = %s read only = No create mask = 0750 browseable = no [public] comment = Public Place path = /home/public read only = No directory mask = 0775 guest ok = Yes [data] comment = Data path = /home/samba/data read only = No create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 guest ok = Yes [cdrom] comment = Linux Box CD Drive path = /mnt/cdrom I have set the workgroup for "harish" as "excelinux" and basically this win-me box logs in to NT with domain name "excel01" My /etc/hosts reads 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain 10.1.1.10 rajesh excelinux.excelapparels.com 10.1.1.9 harish /etc/lmhosts reads localhost rajesh harish harish /etc/hosts.allow is blank /etc/hosts.deny reads ALL: ALL Now the problems are like this. 1) whether I must include /usr/local/samba/bin and /usr/local/samba/lib in PATH ? 2) when I do smbclient -L localhost -N I get [root@excelinux bin]# ./smbclient -L localhost -N can't determine netmask for 10.1.1.9 added interface ip=10.1.1.10 bcast=10.1.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Anonymous login successful Domain=[EXCELINUX] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.2] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- public Disk Public Place data Disk Data cdrom Disk Linux Box CD Drive IPC$ IPC IPC Service (excelinux's Linux Samba Server) ADMIN$ Disk IPC Service (excelinux's Linux Samba Server) Server Comment --------- ------- EXCELINUX excelinux's Linux Samba Server Workgroup Master --------- ------- EXCELINUX EXCELINUX 3) I cant see my linux box and /home/samba /home/harish or /home/public from win-me machine. 4) Sorry to ask but... what is my host name ? if my prompt is [root@excelinux] while setup i had put it as excelinux.excelapparels.com AND HOWTO CHANGE MY HOST NAME since when I try to do it from netconf or linuxcont tool I can key in nothing in the specified field. Dont know the reason. 5) How can "harish" on win-me have access to my cd drive ? I am desperately searching and trying for samba stand up and work the desired tasks for me. But really I am helpless without your help. Awaiting reply Thanks a millions. Rajesh |

Im gonna go outta order.. sorry if its inconvinient.
your prompt of [root@excelinux] means that you are loged in as linux. and that your computers hostname is "excelinux". I know that "netconfig" will allow you to defin your host and workgroupname. I trust that you are aware that if they linix box's and the windows box's workgroup name isnt exactly the same, they wont see eachtother, so make sure that they are the same. #3) If you cant see the nix box on the workgroup, theres no way your going to see its shares. Now... Im curious, do you have or have you set up samba users? if not you may try creating one and try it after youve confirmed that your comps are running on the same workgroup. Try using those tips, and report to me with what you find or have probelms with. I shal :study: and help you more when youve done this. |
