Initial samba setup problem.

[Russ Hancock]

I've just installed samba on a HPUX 11 box, and I can connect internally to the box, using : smbclient //node34/rh0983

but on my NT box connecting a across using :
net use F: \\node34\rh0983
I get,
System error 1208 has occurred.
Network Timeout or HCLNFSD/PCNFSD not running on host.

I can ping both ways, and the smbd and nmbd processes are both running on the HPUX box..

Thanks for any help you can give me.
Russ.

I had the same problem. I think you have a nfs client installed.
Because i had hummingbird installed, and when mapped something, hummingbird took over and tried to mount a nfs export.

So try to uninstall your nfs client.

[Russ Hancock]

Thanks for that, this machine did have Hummingbird on it a while back, I thought it was already removed.. I've now tried on another NT box and I now get the following message.

the account is not authorised to login from this station.

Any ideas?
Cheers
Russ

Can you post your smb.conf?

Maybe you didn't set your security= setting correctly. Or maybe you used an ip-range to access samba in your smb.conf.

Hello Russ,

Have u added ur unix login and passwd to smaba. If not use
$smbpasswd -a username

After this use try to map it again.

Hello,

>>the account is not authorised to login from this station

Register the respective *.reg file on your windows machine.
If it is a NT box register NT4_PlainPassword.reg file with admin privilege on your NT box .Reboot.
The file is localted in the docs directory of your samba installation.
Thanks
