Hi All, Happy new year to all. I have a problem with my setup? I have setup Samba to allow access to files and printers from my windows laptop. All is fine I can connect to the server through network connections on windows 7, and can see and access the shares. I can also send stuff to my printers. But as soon as I start the ispconfig server, I no longer have access to the server. I can still see the server in the network, but when I try to open to see the shares I get the message "The network path was not found". I then have to reboot the server, I can then reconnect but as soon as I start the ispconfig up it stops again. Has anyone else come across this before? I have tried searching for this problem but didn't find anything. Below is the contents of my smb.conf Code: [global] netbios name = UPSTAIRS server string = Upstairs Server obey pam restrictions = Yes passdb backend = tdbsam passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 printcap name = cups preferred master = No domain master = No dns proxy = No wins support = Yes panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d invalid users = root printer admin = @ntadmin printing = cups print command = lpq command = %p lprm command = [homes] comment = Users profiles path = /home/samba/profiles valid users = %S create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 browseable = No [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba create mask = 0700 guest ok = Yes printable = Yes browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/printers write list = root, @ntadmin guest ok = Yes [windows] path = /mnt/windows read only = No guest ok = Yes [new] comment = samba path = /home/ read only = No guest ok = Yes Thanks Steve
Hi All, A bit more info. I turned off the firewall in ISPConfig, it now allows access to the shares again. Is there a way to configure the ISPConfig firewall to allow access to the Samba shares? Does it block the ports required by Samba? Thanks Steve
