Are you using Win XP ? We have a similar problem, except that it was working a few weeks and than suddenly the XP computer cannot see the samba server anymore !!
All other computers (Win98, WinNT) works still fine - only XP is the problem and we habe no clue whats going on. All the hints: XP registry, Firewall, Security does not solve our problem. We are still stucked - XP is not seeing Samba ;-((((( [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi all, > > I've recently setup samba 2.2.5 on a solaris 8 workstation and configured it > to be a member of an NT domain.
