Hello,

I've been using Samba on a Sun server but we recently discontinued using the
Sun and switched to using Samba on a RH linux server. I can't get file
sharing to work on the new server. When I test the connection to the samba
server (velar) by running smbclient //velar/homes -U eric I get an error
message referring to NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME. I can't find any reason
for this error because all the names are correct, permissions are correct,
etc.

Furthermore, when I run smbclient -L localhost -N it correctly lists the
shares, but I get strange results, such as:

Server Comment
--------- ------------
EARTH
SATURN
VELAR Samba

Workgroup Master
------------- -----------
PHON SATURN

This is confusing because EARTH and SATURN are actually clients, not
servers, so I don't see how they can be listed as servers. Also the master
for PHON should be VELAR, not SATURN.

Does anybody have any idea of I can proceed to troubleshoot this problem?
smb.conf listed below.

Thanks very much,
Eric
