Am having a problem with Samba and Windows ME. I have a small network, 3 machines, 2 x Win ME, 1 x Linux Debian/Testing running Samba 3.0.0
Network is via an autodetecting switch - read about the windows issue with NIC autodetect, so have set my windows NIC to 100BaseTX Full Duplex
When I use explorer to look at files on the Linux machine, Explorer freezes, seemingly after I go down a way in a dirctory tree. File transfer seems OK. My smb.conf file is pretty simple :
[global] workgroup = WORKGROUP interfaces = 10.101.1.101 127.0.0.1 bind interfaces only = Yes
[homes] browseable = Yes read only = No
[Webspace] path = /var/www guest ok = Yes
[root] path = / valid users = tom, root admin users = tom, root read list = tom, root write list = tom, root hosts allow = 127.0.0.1 10.101.1.102 browseable = No delete readonly = Yes
I have tried tcpdump when this condition occurs - a lot of packets are being sent :
12:42:45.267640 10.101.1.101.139 > 10.101.1.102.1029: P 2854:2913(59) ack 1437 win 6432 NBT Packet (DF)

Thanks for your help.
