Has anybody been able to make Samba work with 5.0.7? There is no lmhosts directory created on this install.

thanks  klipp

Samba seems to come on just fine here. I'm sharing files.

I have trouble with SAMBA, when there is a windows machine on the network, but it usually starts to work about 20 minutes after boot. If they are all ArcaOS machines, it usually starts to work in about a minute after boot.

lmhosts is a file, not a directory.  I have found that it works better if you put your machine names, with IP addresses, in the HOST file, and eliminate the lmhosts file. I also turn off the setting to create the lmhosts file. YMMV.
