I have an odd situation that has recently occurred...
I have 5 linux boxes that runs Samba 2.0.3.
Group: Linux
Box1: Web1
Box2: DNS1
Box3: DNS2
Box4: Proxy
Box5: Firewall
Up until recently, all 5 would show up in the network neighborhood under the Linux
group.
Now for some reason, they do not show up. The group Linux shows up, but when I click
on
it, I get the following error:
Linux is not accessible
The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available
The odd thing is that I can still map the computers. If I do a network drive mapping,
say
map web1 to letter V:
\\web1\root (under windows NT and 98), I can still map it and use it without any
problems. I just can not see or access it in the network neighborhood. I have not
made
any changes to the servers or to either of my windows computers. This worked
perfectly for
over 6 months, and now it is doing this. I have restarted all computers involved, but
it
has not made any difference.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
