Do the samba logs indicate anything?
Are there any messages in the windows event logs indicating a problem?

Hi,

try 'smbclient -L //<netbios name> (-U uid) (on the unix machine) to see
if there are any shares on the samba server...

cheers

Which Windows client version? Solaris 10 has samba 3.0.x as the default
version which won't work with Windows 7 (I think it works with Vista
with registry tweeks.)

Is the nmbd daemon also running?


What does "net use" should from the command line of the windows
machine? You could also try using the "net use ..." command to map
the drive from the command line on Windows- it may be more obvious if
it fails.

Did the windows machine join the samba domain or is it still in
workgroup mode? When in domain mode you should be able to logon to the
PC but then not have to provide the info again to access shares on the
server (assuming the share and file perms are setup correctly.)
