    SAMBA problem in ver 773?

    I made a USB flash of ver 3.0.766 and is now running 3.0.773.

    I realized I was not able to "see" my boxes in windows anymore, and try to locate why.
    Tried to remove the SAMBA service, and activated the service again, but I still cannot see the boxes in Windows.
    However the netinterface is working in Chrome entering the IP of the box.
    I attach the SAMBA log, and see some faults which I dont understand.

    Hi,

    I'm also on v733 with a Quad. I have mapped drives on my XP and Win 7 machines to the HDD in my Quad and both are working fine. I know that doesn't really help you, but it may well be an issue with your image rather than a general bug. Due to the Video Mode changes I did a full flash with v766 and didn't restore any previous settings files, and my box has ran perfectly since then.

    Have you put your PC's workgroup in the smb.conf file in /etc/samba/

    Change the line workgroup = ViX
    to workgroup = MSHOME
    and restart the box.

    Check first - in your PC Control Panel > System is your PC's workgroup = MSHOME.
