Hi all, Good to be back after a disaster with my PC, Turns out the memory chip packed up and it caused my FC1 to fall over, After much reloading and effort and time I am finally sorted. Now sitting with a fresh install I was in a hurry and set my hostname and set it to chadley.linux instead of chadlin.linux and the problem now is with samba. Now Im not sure if the hostname is the problem but here is what I am experiencing. My windows PC is called chadley and is in the pinnacle workgroup/domain. I have change my host name to chadlin.linux and had to edit the /etc/hosts file to reflect the change. using redhat-config-samba - server settings I have changed the default workgroup for the samba server from "mygroup"to "pinnacle". I have also enabled in redhat-config-authentication - on the authentication tab smb support and from the [configure smb] button I have change the workgroup to PINNACLE as well. I also included the domain controller for pinnacle as PDC-MID. When I browse the network from the menu - Network Servers or smb:/// in nautilus I can still see the workgroup "mygroup" it has 2 pcs in it PDC-MID [which belongs in the pinnacle group] and of course chadley which was the linux pc. if you open it you can see all my linux smb shares. It should not be there, even after a reboot its still there. Then I check the Pinnacle domain and there is chadley and chadlin. chadley [my windows pc] is still showing my linux pcs shares and chadlin is inaccessible. When I go to another windows box everything is working fine. How do I fix this or is it a bug? Thanks in advance for your support I hope that one day I can return the favour. Regards Chadley
