RE: [expert] more information was needed Samba and WinXP woes
Larry, Thanks again for your reply. I have seen that article and it is helpful except for one caveat. We dont run a domain here and do not need Samba to be a domain controller. I want the XP machine to join the workgroup. Will that registry change make the difference for the XP machine to join a workgroup?

[expert] more information was needed Samba and WinXP woes
sorry guys I guess I should have given more information. I have a LM 8.1 Samba 2.2.2 (latest release with updated security patch from Mandrake Update site) set to Share level security no netlogons or domain controllers enabled because we are in a workgroup not a domain. I want one WinXP client to open up its network neighborhood (which is totally weird but that is a different story) and see that the Samba box is there to share files. I dont want the Samba box to provide print services either. All I want the Samba box to do is provide file server services to one WinXP client. My other M$ boxes are connecting to the Samba box just fine. The WinXP box is not at all. AM I missing a smbpasswd or encrypted password or registry change somewhere?

Hi guys. Why wont my Samba 2.2.2 Linux Mandrake 8.1 box allow WinXP clients to attach to it? I thought the Samba team has fixed this issue? I have the latest update from the mdk site.

Thank you all for your responses regarding XP and Samba.

Hi all. Does anyone know why WinXP would not be compatible with SAMBA in Linux 8.1? My buddy installed WinXP on his client machine which used to talk to the Linux box real well and now all of a sudden he cant recognize the Linux box on his network. Could this be because you have to install Services for Unix on XP? Is it because he could have his IP scheme wrong on his XP machine? Please help. TIA.

RE: [expert] Internet Connection Sharing w/ Linux & Win2000
Leif, Go out to a site called Freshmeat.net. I just saw a program that you may be interested in taking a look into. It is called: BBIagent Router. It is a single floppy linux based router for sharing a broadband connection. I know you dont have that but you could still get some information from these people on your particular situation if you still have no luck.

RE: [expert] Internet Connection Sharing w/ Linux & Win2000
Bare with me... Go into your win box network settings and add another TCP/IP adapter pointing to the Linux box as the Gateway out to the Internet. If you have DNS setup on the Linux box...which you do need to have...point the DNS settings to the Linux box. I think you also need to have DHCPd running on the Linux box so that the win client will get its IP from the Linux box. However, I think you can just add a static IP on this additional TCP/IP adapter and you will be ok. YOu should check me on this point. The difference lies in the fact that you are pointing your Laptop to the Linux box in the Gateway and DNS settings of TCP/IP. Ok? Let me know how you make out. I read a NHF on Internet Sharing but that was when IPCHAINS was king but now IPTABLES has taken its place.

I did not see what version of Linux Mandrake that you are running 7.2 or 8 or what? So, I will throw this in for you to look over and see if that helps you. There is an internet connection sharing wizard within the control center that you may want to look at.

The laptop is running Win2000Pro which is setup for the network at school.

I basically just want to setup internet connection sharing with Linux as the server. My problem comes in using Win2000Pro with Linux since I'm fairly new to networks of this type, and I have to have the laptop able to work with the network at school (which already works good).

[expert] Linux to Netware connectivity problems
Hi all. I am new to this list and have a nagging question. Please help. I am running Linux Mandrake 8.0 Freq2 kernel 2.4.5-5mdk on a Pentium 200 64meg machine with 8gig HD Trident video card hooked to a vga monitor. Here is what ails my Linux machine. At work, we have a Netware 5.0 FS. I want to be able to mount a folder/directory on my Linux box from my Netware File Server because I have several folders on the File Server that I use throughout my day to day activities. I would like to save files from my Linux box to and from my home folder on the Netware box. So, I went out and installed ncpfs and ipxutils from the 2 cd set. Read the complicated HOWTO. I also made sure to first go out on the web and search on rpmfind (I think) the dependencies needed before I could run these packages. So, I installed those dependencies (one really - I had the rest) before installing the two other packages. Once the packages were installed, I went into Linuxconf and chose to make IPX enabled with auto configure on everything cause I am lazy. :) Then I went to my prompt and typed slist and got Server (0x8847) not found in ncp_open. So, then I typed ipx_configure --auto off (I forgot those two commands at the moment but maybe that is because of my frustration at this point :) Then I typed ipx_interface delall and then ipx_interface add -p eth0 802.2 Same thing/error happened when I typed slist. I thought maybe I need to put the IPX HEX network address of the Netware File Server after 802.2 and when I do I get unrecognizable network address error (something like this). I have also tried the internal network address to no avail also. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG! UGH! I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the ipxutils and the ncpfs packages to no avail. I have gone into Linuxconf and switched everything back to the way it was before I started this whole adventure. I have done an ipxdump and I see something on my monitor - not legible but packet traffic is occurring and 802.2 is identified. So, I have tried and tried and tried and now I am turning to you all for help. I have installed ipxutils 2.2.0.18.a-3mdk and ncpfs of the same version. Should I maybe try an older version of these packs? Is my kernel too recent? I searched on Google.com and a lot of people have been complaining about this issue but I do not see solutions. Is there any? Is Mandrake doing anything to respond to this problem? My Netware box is configured with one physical NIC but has two protocols...IPX/SPX and TCP/IP TCP/IP is on EtherII and IPX/SPX is on 802.2 the internal network is currently mapped to the ETHERII device Your help is much appreciated and I am thankful for it. I hope this was not too long but, I wanted to give as much info as I know because I really need to get this done. Todd Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
