Robert,<br>

I've got to admit that I am a Windows tech. As much as I would like so
much to leave the Gates train, I need to continue working with the
Windows platform. But, yes. I have rebooted. At every possible junction
of change, reboot. It is still the Windows philosophy. Thanks for the
thought.</blockquote>

I'm finally at a point where I can see the light at the end of the
tunnel for leaving the Windows platform. I've been what my old company
would call a "trapped, unhappy customer" for years. But Google
Calendar allowed me to replace the shared calendars, getting off
Exchange for shared calendaring. Some other things are coming
together, and things look bright. I do have two things that <b>require</b>
Windows. But they're not run very often and, between Parallels and
Bootcamp, I should be fine with the Intel-based Macs.<br>
<br>
In any case, I digress. I'm the friend that Robert was talking about -
where due to DFS support changes in Samba, it was necessary to reboot
the Windows system after upgrading Samba.<br>
<br>
I'm running (and depend on) Samba on Fedora, so I'm familiar with the
basics. Samba keeps log files (on Fedora, they're in /var/log/samba).
What do they have to say? (See what files are updated when you try and
mount, then give those snippits). What, exactly, is in your Samba
configuration file (smb.conf)? What sort of authentication are you
doing? If standard user security, do your passwords match between your
Windows and Samba systems? Or are you overriding the password on the
Windows system when doing the mount?<br>
<br>
I missed your original message (I noticed Robert's message since he's a
friend), so hopefully you didn't specify all this stuff.<br>
