Samba Problem SOLVED: (Partially) Samba problem was solved tonight.
Converted over a second machine to act as a test bed to see if it was a version conflict.
Turned out the problem was not the firewall. Somehow during the upgrade, my user info got hosed...
HOWEVER... SWAT remains USELESS for adding users and creating shares and setting globals.
Added user via command line >smbpasswd -a user
Also learned a few tricks on the second install.
When selecting the repositories for the upgrade, go in and edit each existing repo manually to point to 11.0 instead of 10.3
That will allow you to keep most of your software intact without the dumbassed install DVD assuming it's not supported and save you the trouble of the install deleting it and you having to reinstall it later...
That little gem saved me about 3 Gigs on the total installation and updating afterwards.
Afterwards all your repositories will still read 10.3 but the easiest way to fix that is to simply delete them once all the updates are done and then reinitialize all the 11.0 repositories from YaST to keep the labels straight. |
