Hi, i ve got a Mandrake 9.2 (PIII 512 Mb Ram) as gateway of a little workgroup formed by win98se terminals and one or two XP Pro pcs.
The problem is that sometimes some terminals can see the network neighbourhood right, and sometimes not, as well that sometimes i got troubles for printing via network.
The srange thing is that sometimes i can see all pcs from on terminal and someone i cant. Sometimes i can see the network from a pc and not from other, and maybe then i can from the one i was not able to it. Im getting really crazy!!! as you can see.
I might have something wrong with samba configuration, wich i use to backup data of each pc on the gateway on their home dirs. Im using Samba version 2.2..... and here is my main config smb.conf:
# Global parameters
