Unable to access Samba from outside of my Fedora 19 box

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello friends

I am experiencing a problem to access my Samba shared resources on my Fedora 19 box... they are only visible/accessible from my linux box, but when trying to access from another computer, although the Samba server is shown while browsing the network, when I try to access from other windows computers it fails with the error "the route to XYZ host was not found"

I have a very simple configuration with security=user (share is deprecated and ignored) and 2 shared directories
   /tmp
and
   /mp3
just to test

so I started the server by executing
   smbd -D
   nmbd -D

then I added the system users using useradd/passwd

and I added the samba users by using 'smbpasswd -a username' and the password (the same for system and samba user, for each user)

finally I restarted the samba using 'killall -HUP smbd nmbd'

now I can browse my samba shares from my local linux/samba, the samba server also appears on my windows network, but if I want to access it fails saying "no route was found", no user and password are asked...

What can be the problem?



This is my smb.conf

[global]
        workgroup = MYGROUPNAME
        server string = Samba Server Version %v

        # log files split per-machine:                                                                                                                                 
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        # maximum size of 50KB per log file, then rotate:                                                                                                              
        max log size = 50

        security = user
        passdb backend = tdbsam

        load printers = yes
        cups options = raw

[tmp]
comment = temporal files
path = /tmp
public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no

[mp3]
comment = my data files
path = /mydatafiles
public = yes
writable = no
printable = no


Thanks for any help or comment
