All,
I tried to map the CIFS drive (\\fcohpc\eas2) to Windows 2000 on the same IP subnet as the CIFS server (207.133.248.*) and I received the following message:
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error occurred: The remote computer is not available."
Is there anything I need to change in the configuration on the CIFS server? I am unable to map to the Windows XP clients on the 158 subnet still, but this is due to the firewall, so if someone knows how I can make that happen, please let me know?
-Dan

I do not have the command iptables I am running HP-UX 11.00, is there another command to check this?

Hello Dan,
I'm sorry, I wrote it backwards. If you get the smb :\> prompt, it means
you're in, but only from the localhost. You can now do dir & stuff to play
and exit by typing the quit command.
Now try this: smbclient //fcohpc/eas2 -U testcifs
If you still get the prompt, fine.
Now try connecting from the XP box, but make sure you select the 'Connect as
a different user' checkbox. Then fill in your testcifs userid & password. If
this doesn't work, you may actually be blocked by a firewall, you can
probably verify this with your network administrator. It may be that your
own Unix box has a firewall builtin blocking the NetBIOS traffic (usually
port 137 - 139). You may have to check it (e.g. iptables -L, ...).
However, my previous comments about Samba-users and domain controllers still
apply.
Regards,
Edward

So, it looks like there may be a firewall issue. What do you suggest?

Hello Dan,
OK, you do have a share called 'eas2'. The reason why you could access it
using NFS may be that it probably uses smbmount and/or it may have been at a
time when fcohpc was not acting as a domain master.
Anyway, what you should try is to connect to the eas2 share from your
server:
smbclient //fcohpc/eas2 -I 127.0.0.1 [-U samba-user]
If you get the smb: \> prompt the server is running fine and you may be
blocked by a firewall.
If you get NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE, you're not using a valid Samba-userid,
or authentication fails.
Take a look at your smbpasswd file (e.g. /etc/samba/smbpasswd) to see which
users are valid Samba users. You can add any missing users with smbpasswd -a
userid.
However, you should remove the line 'password server = *' line and restart
the service.
Since fcohpc is acting as a domain controller, you may need to look into the
authentication settings. Some time ago I had the same issue, but since there
were so many things to check and configure, I don't recall what finally did
it.
Best regards,
Edward

The mapping to XP still did not work, receiving the same error message :
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error
has occurred: The specified network name is no longer available."
The IP address of the Windows XP is 158.8.203.58, I can ping the server
address, but I cannot browse to find the server from the map drive, I was
able to connect to the Samba share earlier when I was using the InterDrive
NFS product, but once I removed this I am unable to map this, so I am
curious why this is happening?
Do you have any other ideas?
Thanks,
Dan

Hello Dan,
I think you should start with commenting out the 'password server =' line
since you're using user level security.
Furthermore, your Samba server has been setup to act as a domain controller
(domain master = yes). If you are on a Windows network that already has a
PDC, you should not try becoming a domain controller. Try it with domain
master = no
Also, if you're using user level security I'm not sure if the [netlogon]
section might be a problem. Try it without just for fun.
The password prompted for smbclient -L is irrelevant, you can just type
enter or the valid password of the actual current user. For the -L option it
doesn't care.
Trying smbclient -L //fcohpc is a must, it will tell you if your Samba
server is accessible from the server itself. If so, you should expand by
trying to connect to a share, such as smbclient -I 127.0.0.1 //fcohpc/tmp
and if that works, step up by trying smbclient //fcohp/tmp.
Judging from your smb.conf file, there is no share named 'eas2'. Perhaps you
need to set it up (again). You do have a 'tmp' share, as well as a share
named 'shared'. You can try if you're able to connect to either one. You can
also try to connect like \\12.345.67.89\tmp (i.e. using IP numbers instead
of servername) from the Windows client.
The smb.conf manpage is highly recommended as a starting point.
Best regards,
Edward

The command is prompting for a password:
<fcohpc>#./smbclient -L //fcohpc
added interface ip=207.133.248.67 bcast=207.133.248.127
nmask=255.255.255.192
Password:
I am not sure what password it is asking for, I tried root and the smbpasswd
I setup for user testcifs.
I am not sure if I setup the shares correctly as you indicated, do you know
what I need to do to accomplish this?
Here is my smb.conf file, anything that is not commented out is listed
below:
#======================= Global Settings
=====================================
[global]
netbios name = FCOHPC
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: REDHAT4
workgroup = FCOR
# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
server string = Samba Server
# this tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine
# that connects
log file = /var/opt/samba/log.%m
# Put a capping on the size of the log files (in Kb).
max log size = 1000
# Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See
# security_level.txt for details.
security = user
# Use password server option only with security = server or domain
password server = *
# You may wish to use password encryption. Please read
# ENCRYPTION.txt, Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the Samba documentation.
# Do not enable this option unless you have read those documents
encrypt passwords = yes
# Most people will find that this option gives better performance.
# See speed.txt and the manual pages for details
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
domain master = yes
# Preferred Master causes Samba to force a local browser election on startup
# and gives it a slightly higher chance of winning the election.
preferred master = yes
# Enable this if you want Samba to be a domain logon server for
# Windows95 workstations.
domain logons = yes
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = no
# This option is mainly used as a compatibility option for Visual C++
# when used against Samba shares.
dos filetime resolution = yes
read only = no
syslog = 0
#============================ Share Definitions
==============================
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp
read only = no
guest account = nobody
guest ok = yes
# Un-comment the following and create the netlogon directory for Domain
Logons
[netlogon]
comment = Network Logon Service
path = /var/opt/samba/netlogon
read only = yes
[shared]
comment = shared file system
path = /shared
guest account = nobody
guest ok = yes
I am also not sure why nothing is listed in the log files. I looked under
/var/log/samba, but nothing has logged there at all.
I appreciate all your help looking into this for me.

Hello Dan,
What do you see when you enter the following command from the Samba server:
smbclient -L //yourserver
You should see one or more shares, one or more servers and a workgroup,
something like:
Domain=[MCCO-OFFICE] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.7a-security-rollup-fix]
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
eas2 Disk
IPC$ IPC IPC Service (your comment here)
ADMIN$ Disk IPC Service (your comment here)
Server Comment
--------- -------
THEPDC
FCOHPC your comment here
Workgroup Master
--------- -------
THEWORKGROUP THEPDC
If you don't see any shares, you haven't (properly) defined them (yet).
Another thing could be that in some cases a so-called trust-relationship has
to exist between the PDC and your Samba server.
Is there anything useful in the log files, e.g. /var/log/samba/* ?
Best regards,
Edward
