Yep, I tried all of those things. Memtest comes out clean withno errors. Eventvwr shows no errors at all. I ran chkdsk and it found no problems at all. I played around with Msconfig but that didn't seem to have any affect (it hung again this morning after sitting idle all night). I ordered...

I tried that last evening, updating to the 28.x series of drivers. The card is a Chaintech Nvidia GForce 400 (I believe. I updated the drives last night, but this morning it was hung again solid

I am running Windows XP Pro on a system with the following specs: Athlon 1Ghz 256-SDRAM ECS K7VTA motherboard 20GB Seagate HD Chaintech Nvidia Video card This machine is only about a year old, and I have been having this problem for quite some time. The machine will intermittently lock up...

I have never been able to login. I was trying both a username called "sean" (which I have created on the ftp box). and anonymous/ I also tried root, but got the same results. I verified that both users are not present in the ftpusers file.

I have WU-ftp up and running. However, when I try to ftp (client and FTP server are on same internal network), it prompts for user name, and then password. If I put in a valid user name and password (or if I try anonymous and an email address as password) it tells me the logon is invalid...

Sure...here is what I did. 1) Downloaded latest version of Samba from http://www.samba.org. 2) Did a gunzip filename.tar.gz, and then a tar -xvf filename.tar. 3) Basically everything else I did from here on in is documented in all of the posts in this thread. In the end I ended up...

If I am using IPCHAINS on my firewall, how would I go about forwarding external FTP requests on ports 20/21 to my internal FTP server sitting at 192.168.0.3? Thanks! Sean

I will do that...thanks for your help!

Thanks guys...restarting xinetd did the trick.

I am trying to setup an FTP server. I installed wu-ftp, and if I do a chkconfig --list it shows it as being on, so I assume it's running. However, if I try to ftp to the local box I get a connection refused. Get the same message if I try to ftrp from another box. I checked the hosts.deny...

I managed to get it working...I just set permissions on the linux box itself to everyone/full control for now. Thanks anyways :)

I have Samba up and running, and I can map a drive from my XP machine to the Linux machine. However, if I try to write to the Samba share I get access denied. I tried setting up the smb.conf so that it would authenicate against the sam on my XP machine (gateway1), but when I try that it tells...

The version I loaded was the latest from samba.org. The version I loaded from the Red Hat distro CD was 2.0.7 I believe.

It's working!! :) Although it was sort of a work-around...last night I tried reinstalling from the distro CD (the rpm package vs a tarball). However, because I have no idea what I am doing :), I attempted to start the services the same way I have all along, but that didn't work. I came across...

Well now I am kinda confused...I don't have a /var/log/warn or a /var/log/local anywhere. I looked in the /var/log/messages but did not see any entries related to smbd. If I do a netstat -a it does not list netbios-ssn, so I assume that means the daemons are not starting. I am not sure why...
