Hello all' I've just upgraded my OS to SuSE 8.2 from 8.0. Everything
went great and I've got the latest kernel. But samba does not seem to
work anymore, I mean it's running. 

How do you debug samba if it's not logging anything? I'm tailing
messages, log.smbd and log.nmbd. But nothing is logged except:

[2003/06/11 14:54:19, 0] smbd/server.c:main(707)
  smbd version 2.2.7a-SuSE started.
  Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2002

I see it running:

mars:/var/log/samba # ps wwwaux | grep samba
root     12208  0.0  0.7  5372 1904 ?        S    14:54   0:00
/usr/lib/samba/classic/smbd -D -s /etc/samba/smb.conf

My config which I did not chanage since the upgrade:

[aaa-sites]
        comment = AAA-Sites
        path = /home/AAA-Sites
        read only = No
        create mask = 0777
        directory mask = 0770
        force directory mode = 0770
        short preserve case = No

[10.1.htdocs]
        comment = 10.1.htdocs
        path = /usr/local/httpd/htdocs
        read only = No
        create mask = 0777
        directory mask = 0770
        force directory mode = 0770
        short preserve case = No

Do you guys see anything wrong except the fact that [global] is
commented out, I fixed this and still no go;

It's the windows box the issue is on I can ping etc but noe shares.
