I recently upgraded from rh6.0 to 6.1. Did not have Samba running on 6.0, so decided to implement on small home network (1) Win95 and (2) Win98 machines. Am having great difficulty getting things going. Tried to use smbstatus to see current state. Returns error message "Couldn't open status file /var/lock/samba/STATUS..LCK" Yes, there are two dots in there. Any clue?
smbstatus won't show anything until the first client connects.
