I would NOT use 255 in your host address.
1-254 are usually good values with a class [ABC] address
type netmasks (all quads are 255 or 0). 0 can be ambiguous
or wrong and 255 is even wronger ("that's 'more wrong'").
Or am I wrong...?

anyone here having luck using samba with vmware?
i cant seem to be able to connect to my own samba server... but its
setup with vmware (they have a slightly modified version)
Im following this diagnostics tests from DIAGONSIS.txt with the source
download.
I am trying to smbclient -L money where money is the host i am trying to
connect from, and the smbd server.
i have checked and smbd is running, however, i get the following error
when i try and connect:
[root at money smb]# smbclient -L money
added interface ip=192.168.255.31 bcast=192.168.255.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=192.168.202.1 bcast=192.168.202.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
error connecting to 192.168.255.31:139 (Connection refused)
Connection to money failed
My host (money) isint in the main dns here, and ive been listing it in
/etc/hosts as 127.0.0.1 and the 192.168.255.31 addr (not at the same time)
If anyone can help... id appreciate it.
thx
duncan
