Problem networking with samba to the pc

[AF-Domains.net]

I can now connect to the amiga from the pc aslong as I also put \all after it otherwise it says that the server is not configured for transactions.

How do you configure an Amiga server for transactions?

Thanks

AFAIK nmdb does only work correctly, if the right IP addresses are entered into the hosts configuration file. And maintaining the hosts file means using static IP addresses or at least assuring that DHCP always give the same IP address to each computer. Having wrong IP addresses in your hosts file might lead to your problem.

I don't see the benefit from using DHCP on a home network anyway. Even on Windows, DHCP needs around two minutes to determine the network address. With static IP addresses the network is up and usable at once.

Bye,

I have some windows registry files that are suppoed to help control password handling, someting about plain password encryption - they haven't helped me, but I'll send them along if you think they'll be useful.

I get Error 53 name not recognized when I try 'net use z: \\amiga4k\ram', but 'ping amiga4k' works...

Amiga and PC now talk to each other with no problems.

Thanks for all your help.

Have you tried using samba 2.0.7?
