Samba doesn't start on SuSE 8.2

[Matthew Carpenter]

Glad to help, Alma.

I'm not sure what you're referring to about restarting the services before they actually work...  Once you edit the config or after a reboot?
/etc/init.d/smb restart
/etc/init.d/nmb restart

Most systems don't even RUN IPX anymore.  I haven't run IPX since the NCPFS utilities did pure IP for NetWare servers.  I didn't even know Samba DID IPX :)

Hope you score big on the finals!  After 5 years in the workforce, I can still vividly remember studying for finals.  My advice (as if I were wise or something): Seriously... enjoy yourself.  Work hard, but understand that the struggles you are going through are light.  The burden is very different and more difficult when you start working.  Then, no longer are you treated as the "customer" but everyone else is :)
