Re: [Samba] Windows lost Samba server

2005-10-28 Thread Michael Barnes
The system logs really don't say much that I can decipher about this 
problem.  I can get to it with the IP address from Windows or another 
Linux box, but I can't access the shares from Windows via the IP address.


UPDATE:  I have one lab machine on the same workgroup as the problem 
Samba box.  When I shut it down, suddenly everyone can see and connect 
properly to the Samba server.  I guess I have some type of browser conflict.

various Windows machines (both 98 and 2K), I could see the shares,
permissions seemed good, etc.  I was working on fine tuning the logon
scripts for WRNHQ.

An unexpected power failure rebooted WRNHQ.  (Machines on the bench
are not on UPS)  Since the reboot, the Windows machines cannot see
WRNHQ. They can still see MCALLEN with no problem.  Searching for
computers in Network Places/Neighborhood finds everything but WRNHQ.

Samba is running fine, no errors found.  Nothing was being edited, nor
were any files open when the reboot occurred.

I'm totally lost on what to check.  Ideas appreciated.

BTW, WRNHQ is CentOS4 running Samba 3.

Thanks,

Hi,

im a samba/networking newbie, but i would first take a look at the
system logs.

Is the machine reachable with ping (interface up)?
is samba listening on the lan interface?
