Thought of adding wins to name resolve order? In mine, I have this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# grep wins /etc/samba/smb.conf name resolve order = wins hosts bcast wins support = Yes Docs say it should be on anyway but for some reason it defaults to "no". lmhosts is the client side ( 'doze ) hosts file. The Windows equivalent of /etc/hosts. Consequently adding it to my resolve order shouldn't cause trouble. > socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192 Comment this out for a test? > username level = 8 > deadtime = 30 > map to guest = bad user > encrypt passwords = yes > hosts allow = 192.168.0. 127.0.0.1 > printer admin = @adm > password level = 8 > dns proxy = no > netbios name = anne-linux Tried changing this for a test? There might be some kind of confusion between the user name and the netbios name. Probably not but it's just a thought. > printing = cups > printcap name = cups > server string = Samba Server %v > local master = yes > workgroup = lydgate.net Hmmm... I don't have a workgroup on my machine. I wonder how it relates to netbios name? The man pages are not very specific about it. > printcap name = cups > security = user > preferred master = yes > max log size = 50 > log level = 3 > dos charset = 850 > unix charset = ISO8859-15 Here is what I've got for this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# grep charset /etc/samba/smb.conf unix charset = LOCALE [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# I don't think you need both public = no and valid users which I've noticed in some of your shares. > [homes] > comment = Home Directories > browseable = yes > writable = yes > create mode = 0770 . . . > [SPREADSHEETS] > path = /home/anne/Documents/Spreadsheets > comment = /home/anne/Documents/Spreadsheets > public = no > valid users = anne,david,gillian Check your 'doze clients network connections for a "Client for Microsoft Networks". Some other client side stuff to check: Network Connection | Click Properties | Select Internet Protocol ( TCP/IP ) | Click Properties | Click Advanced | Select Wins tab "Wins servers in order of use" should list your Samba box's IP address. Of course this probably only matters if your Samba box has "wins support = Yes".
