Hi, You all probably new I would soon be back...anyhow I got Samba running and I can see it on my three Windows machines as "localhost". When I try to launch "localhost" from the two Win98 machines a password box pops up with \\localhost\ipc$\. When I type the password it says not correct. When I try launching "localhost" from the Win2k Pro machine a message says, "\\localhost is not accessable, a duplicate name exists on the network". I configured Samba from the directions at http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/custom-guide/s1-samba-configuring.html I did the: cat /etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd.sh > /etc/samba/smbpasswd And the: chmod 600 /etc/samba/smbpasswd But when I tried to do the: smbpasswd username I type a username (miyuki) and then the password, and then I re-type the password but then I get a message that says: "failed to modify password entry for user miyuki" I get the same results with my other two users also. All three users were also placed into the smb.conf file.
