Thanks kerry, I'm slightly confused though. I have a nic for the internet, and another nic for my intranet. Does changing the interface listening setup still apply?

I swear that I didn't modify anything on this machine. If I did, I can't remember doing it, and I'm not sure what's going on. I checked inetd.conf, the samba logs, hosts.deny, hosts.allow, and of course smb.conf, but everything is as it should be. When I try to connect to my main samba machine with windblows, th main samba machine is not in the list of machines. When I use smbmount from another linux box, I get something like: > > > > x protocal negotiation failed. smb connection failed. > > > > In this case, x is 116, 118, 120, 122, or 124. The strange thing is that there is nothing in the samba logs.
