It takes one of our xp pro clients a long time to detect a particular linux host. i flushed the iptables to see if port obstruction was a factor but i saw no result tcpdump clearly sees m$ looking and nmap says:
Starting nmap V. 3.00 (
www.insecure.org/nmap/ )
Interesting ports on suse.local (192.168.1.1):
(The 1593 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
Port State Service
22/tcp open ssh
23/tcp open telnet
111/tcp open sunrpc
139/tcp open netbios-ssn
515/tcp open printer
631/tcp open ipp
901/tcp open samba-swat
6000/tcp open X11
looks okay (not secure just okay) right?
heres smb.conf:
global]
workgroup = OURHOUSE
netbios name = SUSE
server string = samba server
encrypt passwords = Yes
update encrypted = Yes
pam password change = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
unix password sync = Yes
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
logon script = /etc/samba/LOGON.BAT
logon home = \\linux\%U
domain logons = Yes
os level = 200
preferred master = Yes
domain master = No
dns proxy = No
wins support = Yes
guest account = smbguest
valid users = randi , jacob , root
admin users = randi , jacob , root
write list = randi , jacob , root
printer admin = randi , jacob , root
guest ok = Yes
thiese params work fine with other servers
and i tried a 200 for os level.
different distro than the other redhat 9 and FreeBSD servers.
this one is SuSE 8.2.
Thanks
