Yet another guess... are you sure the daemons are even running? Check on the "status" page of SWAT to make sure. I wasted about 20mins banging my gigantic head against a very hard wall last week because of this. Samba was installed by 6.1, but wasn't set to start up with the system. ;) -----Original Message----- From: Mark Donnelly [mailto:gimli at offcenter.org] Sent: Monday, December 13, 1999 3:16 PM To: Derek Martin Cc: Kevin M.

I'd guess instead that Kevin had initially gotten SAMBA to work by installing from scratch, and then had upgraded it via an RPM. Unfortunately, these two methods install to wildly different places! So, I would -again guess - that Kevin's SWAT displays and configures things, but that it doesn't actually *do* anything, because it's altering all the wrong files. As for the smb files being missing, which ones are they? I'd guess that they're there, just in different places. Try running this command: rpm -l samba (optionally with a "| less") This will list out all the files that the samba rpm installs, including any configuration files that come with it. Does it have any in /etc? Are they there? Hey, this is just a guess.
