Kinda OT. I've been trying to get Samba running on a Centos 5 box for some time now, but can't seem to get it to happen. I can not connect to the machine from our external network but I can connect from a box on the same network. So it seems like a firewall problem. Funny thing is I have no problem with Samba on a Centos 6 box. For now, that's the one I'm using for all of my mounts. I have looked and looked at my firewall to try and find a difference in the "allows", but can find nothing, so I ask... Does anyone have a clue as to whether there was a difference in the setup for Samba on Centos 5 from the setup on Centos 6 that might be a 'gotcha'? Sorry for the stupidity. I've checked all the ports needed, both TCP and UDP, and they all seem to be open. I'm hoping there was a change in defaults or something I'm just overlooking. Thanks steve campbell
