samba jaunty

[milanvora]

I had samba running fine under 8.1
I upgraded to jaunty on my desktop.
I re-ran all steps under ubuntugeek (howto samba)
Now when i try to connect my latop (windows) to access my shares on my desktop, it doesn't work

any ideas what am i doing wrong ?

welcome

did you take the option to keep your current smb setup during the upgrade ?

also is smb service running ?

[milanvora]

no i asked it to reset it while doing the upgrade, thinking it was anyhow easy to setup
what do you mena by smb running?
the samba daemon is running

[inobe]

did you backup your smb.conf first ?


if yes simply do


cp /etc/samba/smb.conf.backup /etc/samba/smb.conf
