Infrastructure Software

Morning all,

I have an irritating problem with SAMBA which I hope someone will be able to assist with.

Im sharing from Solaris 10 to some Windows 2008 servers. The share can be mapped locally using smbclient and listed so everything looks ok. I can map a drive from one of the Windows servers and again go down the directory and everything looks ok.

However when I try to map the exact same share to a different windows server I receive a message saying 'Network access is denied' or 'An unexpected network error occured'. One of the Windows servers is on the same subnet as the one which works while the other is on a different subnet.

Ive checked I can 'ping' each box from the solaris serevr and vice versa, telnet to port 139 from each. There are no internal firewalls and ive moved hosts.allow and deny just to be 100% certain. JASS is installed but I cant see this being the issue.

Ive cut my smb.conf below:

root@fgukshppay001:/var/samba/log # cat /etc/sfw/smb.conf
[global]
workgroup = CARDIFF
netbios name = CARDIFF
log file = /var/samba/log/log.%m
log level = 3
security = share
# security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/sfw/private/smbpasswd
server string = CARDIFF Samba Server
printcap name = /dev/null
# load printers = no
# nt acl support = no
# max log size = 250

[stetest]
comment = stetest
path = /stetest
valid users = a502406
public = yes
browseable = yes
read only = yes


Appreciate this is a bit of a shot in the dark but if anyone has any idea or come across the same issue please shout!!!!...



Thanks...
