Re posts #16 & 17:
I am grasping at straws too - all machines have Internet access, and Gateway / Mask / DNS / WINS IPs are configured correctly (see the numbers 1-4 mentioned in post #15).

Hi Chris,
Thanks so much for your responses and your time - I'm going to whip this or die trying.
Please see my answers below (I think the numbered list 1 thru 4 is the most telling):
Good point - I forgot about the hosts file on each machine - duh.
That should take care of any IP name resolution issues.
From a networking standpoint, I have Samba configured to be domain...
Update:
I just went back after lunch, and cannot get to the server via the Network Browser, nor can I get mywebsite again (just from the PCs).
During that time, there have been no interactions...
Thanks for the tips Chris - I assumed there was connectivity since mounted network drives worked.
I don't know the explanation, but here is what happened:
Pinging the server IP (and Name) was...
I apologize, I should have mentioned that my Windows firewall statement was incorrect.
When tried to access mywebsite with the firewall off, I entered the IP for the Mac-hosted mywebsite by...
Thanks for the reply, but that is what is so maddening about this.
Avahi has always been running on the Ubuntu server, and Bonjour has always been running on Windows.

Thanks for the reply Mark, but I already have the host file populated on each Windows machine with all IPs and names, plus running Ubuntu as the WINS server.
Network name resolution works perfectly...
I have a website on a standalone Ubuntu server (using virtual host).
I can access the site from 3 different Macs using Safari, Firefox and Chrome.

Thanks for the tip on VMware and great IP link! :D
That was definitely VMware's IP, and the link really helps clear up some other network issues.
Thanks again!
Our single LAN network is 192.168.8/24, but after firing up our standalone Ubuntu Lucid Lynx Server and Samba, we have the following data using Netstat on a Mac:

Thanks Keith.
I just found what looks like might be a very helpful guide: Samba-3 by Example, by John H. Terpstra.
It outlines several different networking scenarios, and the recommended approach...
Greetings,
I have 10.04 Lucid installed.
It seems like Samba has already been beaten to death in these forums, but I have read 1000 different suggestions from 1000 different people, so I still...
I am using Webmin to manage an internal server. When it comes to mounts, I have a question about each choice available for mounting the following filesystem directories:

I'm hoping someone can post info or a link that illustrates how best to use RAID & LVM in creating a fileserver and internal webserver.
I have installed Ubuntu 10.04. :D
I have 2 RAID mirrored...
Thanks!
I went ahead and added individual Ubuntu users, but first used Webmin to automatically add new Unix users as Samba users.
Worked beautifully.
Then I used gconf-editor to not show any...
If I want to add Windows & Mac users as Samba users, must I first add them all as Ubuntu users?
If so, since none of the other users will actually be working on the Ubuntu Server, how do I disable...
Tons of thanks for the valuable input and your even more valuable time.
I think it may be better to create my RAID1 sets with 2 internal drives only, and use rsync to back up to the hot-swap...
Thanks for the reply Bill.
The 2 RAID sets are RAID1 mirrored sets - each set is 2 drives plus 1 spare - the spares are actually hot-swap drives - I will take the 2 hot-swaps home with me each...
Would someone please let me know if I am going the right direction with my plan as listed below?
