Somewhere in there (probably FC6), I also experienced the death of samba :-). I could no longer get it to talk to my windows boxes no matter what I poked in the web interface. Then I tried simply copying the /etc/samba/smb.conf file from the old release where it worked to the new release (where it didn't work), and like magic, it started working again! Ever since then I've just copied in the old smb.conf file, and I continue to have no problems. I just hope it works the same on fedora 9 when I upgrade... -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
