[Sheflug] Network problem

["Ian W. Wright" <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

HI,

One of me computers has started to act goofy and won't see part of the
network. I assume I've messed something up but I can't work out what. The
error I get is that it can't access 'localhost'. The machine is running
RedHat 7.2 and I can access it from another linux machine but can't get it
to see any of the windoze boxen. The smb.conf file looks OK to me but, if I
look for it with Network Neighbourhood from a windoze box, it just isn't
there and, if I try to access the 'local network' from Konqueror on the RH
box, I just get the 'localhost' error. I can 'ping' the RH box from windoze
boxen.
Any ideas where I should look for the problem and what I might have screwed
up??
Thanks,
Best wishes,
Ian
