Samba 2.2.7a on HPUX 11.00

[Thomas Mittereder]

Hi all,
i have install Samba and it works ok. I have access to the server with the DOS command "net use" and with the UNIX command "smbclient".
The problem is that i cant't see the server in "network neighborhood". Can me help one???

Can you tell us your doman name?

Can you upload the error message and your smb.conf file.

In some circumstances the NT/2000 Network Administrator needs to assign an account to the HP-UX machine for full browser networking to work.

in smb.conf you need to have your domain correct.

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: REDHAT4
workgroup = juf.net


That's ours.

Have you started nmbd daemon? If not, start nmbd daemon.

Hi,
I think you should add this unixbox name on Ntdomain

[Thomas Mittereder]

There is no error message in the logfile.
I don't want use the samba server as PDC. I want to share only some directories.

[Dave Elliott]

Thomas you dont seem to have set a security level, is this correct.
also are you trying to authenticate on unix or NT.
i currently run 6 servers which authenticate to NT and are visible in the Network neighbourhood.
can you explain better your requirements.
One thing i don't know wether you have tried( only if you are trying to authencate from NT PDC) is to create a windows server entry on the PDC and then try running smbpasswd -j DOMIAN NAME -r PDC NAME.
this will then register the entry on NT but may not show for a few minutes depending on how frequently your PDC updates.

[Thomas Mittereder]

We have an unixnetwork and a linuxnetwork and windows 2k computer. The linuxserver is a PDC. The unixserver is only to share some dir's. We have set the security level "user", so that one must enter a password (or?), if one use a share.

[Dave Elliott]

Thomas try the SMBPASSWD comand mentioned earlier having first set up the windows server entry.
is your network windows or linux.

[Thomas Mittereder]

The SAMBA-Server is the PDC for a windowsnetwork and the server for linuxnetwork.
I don't understand the last answer, what I'm to make with the smbpasswd command.

The nmbd daemon should be running to show your machine on the network Neighbourhood.
