OT samba and XP

Tue Nov 4 15:41:47 PST 2003

Check that your reverse DNS is set up correctly for both machines.  I had
the same problem earlier today, where my laptop running win98 worked fine
but the XP machine would time out.  I found my reverse DNS was wrong for the
samba server.  So, I fixed it and it works fine now.

Sincerely,

Rick Duvall

Subject: OT samba and XP

I can connect to my samba shares reliably with 98/95/ME/2000 but when i try
and connect
with XP pro the xp pro machine locks up like its waiting for something
and i eventually have to ctr/alt/del and reboot or log off of it.

Below is my config file.

can someone suggest a fix?

running version 2.2.8A
# Samba config file created using SWAT
