The fault tree is for diagnosing and fixing problems that occur when you're installing and reconfiguring Samba. It's an expanded form of a trouble and diagnostic document that is part of the Samba distribution.
Before you set out to troubleshoot any part of the Samba suite, you should know the following information:
-
Your client IP address (we use 192.168.236.10)
-
Your server IP address (we use 192.168.236.86)
-
The netmask for your network (typically 255.255.255.0)
-
Whether the machines are all on the same subnet (ours are)
For clarity, we've renamed the server in the following examples to
server.example.com, and the client machine to
client.example.com.
