Guest gaaslight Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 i used to connect my winnt4.0 pewter to a samba server called clbb-127, then i had to upgrade my installation after a failed attempt to create a new partition. everything is fine now except when i see a new server called clbb-57 in samba mount points in mcc the old server clbb-127 is still listed but i can't seem to mount it or do anything with it and the new server clbb-57 isn't found by my winnt4.0 pewter. is there a way to delete samba servers and start over?

scarecrow Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Editing your smb.conf, likely. What did you try to edit your samba configuration? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 You could remove samba server: urpme samba-server and then reinstall it. Any conf files that were being used will be renamed, and then when you reinstall it, you'll have a nice clean fresh config. Much better if you're new to all this, then you don't have to mess around trying to revert back to previous config. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gaaslight Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 (edited) just tried re-installing and everything looks like it did before.. when i reboot verbose mode i see that the smb connection fails. my winnt box can't find servers in the workgroup "mdkgroup". my linux box can't find anything on the local network. Editing your smb.conf, likely.What did you try to edit your samba configuration? i'm using the mandriva control center to try sharing my internet connection and to set up samba mount points. it work so well the first time.
