While running the tests suggested by margaret, I ran nmblookup -B photon __SAMBA__ and got back querying __SAMBA__ on 192.168.1.20 name_query failed to find name __SAMBA__ The web page indicates an inetd problem - which I could have addressed. I see that Fedora is using xinetd, and I don't see any smb or nmb settings in the xinetd.d directory (I grepped for both). While this *MIGHT* be OK, I'm suspecting a problem here. Should there be entries for smb and nmb? If so, what should they be (and in what files?) Thanks much ---Michael
