Hi,
I ended up doing a complete new install. The computer is nearly back to the way I want it. The other computers I will keep with 8.04. To much of a hassle upgrading.
Thanks

While this fixed my problem with samba.. Now I am able to browse windows server 2008 shares (I was able to browse any smb share except for MS 2008 server). But it broke my dns look up.. It is veeery slow.
My installation of ubuntu is 64 bit, I don't know if it makes a difference, I've seen a lot of threads regarding slow dns resolution and they talk about ip6 issues. Really my problem started when I added wins to the host field in nsswitch.conf
any ideas???
Yup, I highly suggest that (since it works for everything but the MS 2008 server, that you do one of two things:
1) add the MS 2008 server's IP address to /etc/hosts like so:
2) mount your server 2008 shares according to the second link in my sig, and use the IP address instead of the host name.Code:127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 ubuntu-hostname 192.168.x.x server-2008-hostname
1) Samba server howto | 2) mount windows/samba shares with CIFS + unicode | 3) best FTP server howto
4) NFS server/client howto | 5) Easy cross-platform LAN file sharing with FTP
6) Fix samba browsing!!! | 7) Fix Pulse audio
Happy Ubunting!
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] wins dns mdns4
Broke Liferea's ability to add feeds via Firefox.
Liferea segfaults 11 anytime a feed is added. After removing WINS from /etc/nsswitch.conf, all is well.

I kept WINS package installed on my machine, and so far the samba shares are all browsable.
