Hi Lawrence,
So you already have samba running.
Try connecting to it from another computer on the same subnet ( 192.168.1.?). With your samba server on 192.168.1.200, verify that you can connect if you do:
ping 192.168.1.200 and telnet 192.168.1.200 445 or telnet 192.168.1.200 139
If you can't ping at all then fix your connectivity first or use another computer.
If you can ping and you can't connect via telnet then you may have firewall blocking the connection.
If telnet says connected then the problem could be your samba config. In your testparm, your Global settings have issues. I suggest you start with a basic config file just like the Sample Passwordless Configuration in the following link:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Samba/Tips_and_tricks
Don't forget to restart samba or reboot your server after the config change.
Regards,
Noel

Well that looks like my problem then?:

tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:139 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
No, those two look fine.
tcp6 0 0 :::445 :::* LISTEN
tcp6 0 0 :::139 :::* LISTEN
And by default you also get IPv6 as well. :)
Maybe try smbclient? _______________________________________________ wlug mailing list | wlug(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Unsubscribe: http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/wlug
