To be honest with you, I can't remember if I've tested samba since I switched to debian, but it used to run fine under linuxppc. Check your /etc/samba/debian_config. It's probably running out of inetd, so you won't see it in ps unless there's a connection. If you're having trouble connecting, I recommend going to the samba website and looking at their troubleshooting instructions. They're quite good and will lead you right to the problem at hand. Good luck, cbb
