nevermind folks, I got it figured out. I found out about the bug in the version of Samba I was running... updating it to 3.0.6 fixed it.
Additionally I modified some master browser information that seems to have corrected the complaint I was getting in the nmbd.log file. Thanks anyhow, everyone back to their labor day weekends. :) On Sun, 5 Sep 2004 21:43:54 -0600, Jason Page <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey guys...
