Is smbd and nmbd running?
Type 'ps ax | grep [sn]mbd'.
If you don't get back either of them, try this:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start
(smb might be 'samba')
You should see smb and nmb start. Once they do, try connecting with the
Windows machine again.
As long as that works, you'll need to set it up to start automatically. Do
this in Linuxconf.

Subject: [expert] Samba 2.0.6
Hello,
I've recently upgraded my to Mandrake 7.0. The problem is that now my
windows machines cannot connect to the samba shares. The share shows
up in the network neighborhood but will not connect. The message I get
is "\\linux1 is not accessible" I've opened up the share for guest
accounts,
browseable to the world, everything I could think of. The printers
don't
even show up. About the only thing I can think of is that their may be
a service that's not active or something on that order. Any Ideas?
Thanks in advance
M. Hahn
