Where did you get the webmin rpm from?? its looking in the wrong place for smb.conf
it should be looking in /etc/samba/smb.conf did you install samba from your mandrake disks or did you get it elsewhere??? you have two choices: 1. edit the config files for webmin in /etc/webmin 2. uninstall the rpm you used and install the mandrake rpm. actually, there is a third option, it may be that you can go into webmin in the config screen and choose mandrake 9 as the OS.. if it is on the list that should fix your problem. regards Franki -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 12 February 2003 2:09 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] SAMBA help? OK... I have downloaded the most recent .rpm from www.webmin.com and installed it. I can connect to https://localhost:10000 as root. Now when I choose the "Servers" area and go to the "Samba Share Manager", it gives me the following error... "The configuration file /etc/smb.conf was not found. Most likely Samba is not installed on your system, or your module configuration is incorrect." What now?
