I found a samba rpm package on the net and installed it on a RedHat 8.0 machine that is used as a proxy/web server on our network.
And I need to share the web directory for backup purposes.
I got the service running, and can see the server from my xp machines, but cannot connect. Path not found.
I have been messing with the smb.conf file, but have no credible clue what to do with it. Here is the contents of the smb.conf file
---------------------------------------------
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = My-proxy
hosts allow = 000.000.000.0
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192
SO_SNDBUF=8192
[Downloads]
comment = home folder
path = /home
browseable = yes
writable = yes
public = yes
read only = no
[homes]
comment = My Home Directory
browseable = yes
writable = yes
public = yes
read only = no
[printers]
path = /var/spool/samba
public = yes
guest ok = yes
printable = yes
browseable = yes
writable = yes
read only = no
----------------------------------------------------------
The name of the server is My-proxy, and I have hidden the address in all zero's for obvious reasons.
Does this look right to anyone? Or wrong to everyone?
