Hi donna,
When we try to run the testparm, we get this (we used VI to add
the IP address):
shell/iX> /usr/local/samba/bin/testparm /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf

i've not tried swat. funny thing is -- i was just thinking about
asking that today -- if anyone had gotten swat to work? i remember a
hpworld(?) presentation on samba that included how to get swat to work.
the presenter said something about having to add certain ports to your
services file (maybe...? it's been a long time...) and i think i glazed
over at that point :-)

1. what os version are you on? and samba's version?
2. when you click on explore your network on your pc (aka network
neighborhood, in old speak) is there a domain/workgroup name? did you
add that to your smb.conf file? is your mpe server on the same network
as the rest of your servers?
3. did you edit smb.conf with vi or another bytestream-friendly
editor?
4. in smb.conf, is interfaces set correctly to your mpe system's ip
address and mask?
5. you probably don't want to be a domain master or preferred master.
samba is generally pretty easy to get started. there's not a whole lot
to change in the smb.conf file (adding logons is a bit different
though). a few minor changes and samba should start up.
all for now.... - d
