I'm having a problem with Samba that I can't figure out. I have it 
installed and I can see the server in Network Neighborhood. When I try to 
browse to it I get the following error:
"\\Piglet is not accessible.
The network path was not found."

When I try to map to \\piglet\pigletroot I get:
The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error 
has occurred:
No service is operating at the destination network endpoint on the remote 
system.

I took the smb.conf from another one of my linux machine that is working 
and modified it for this one. Changed the computer name, share name, and 
server description. When I look at Network Neighborhood I see the proper 
description, so I know it sees it.

I also have created an smbpasswd with the same username that I use on 
Windows 2000, and I have a regular account on the machine with the same 
username. All three have the same passwords.

Here's my smb.conf. Any ideas what I'm missing?

Thanks,
James
