Subject RE: [ib-support] Problem with connection
Author Ernesto A. Zapata Icart
In reality, my directory in Linux is: /home/bin/databases/mybase.gdb
*data* is the name of shared resource put in smb.conf
I suspect that something this wrong with Samba.

No, in the HOSTS file nothing appear

Yes, that means. Am I mixing things, not?

Is this directory *physically* attached to the same machine that is
running the server process?

In the computer's client did you also identify the server name and its
IP address in the HOSTS file?

Does this mean you are trying to access a database by way of a SMB
location?
