Hi Guys,

Am trying to serve some files to the other windows PC's on my home network... i know I know... so install Samba and all that jazz... Though it simply won't start

Here's the log entry

[2006/09/04 15:12:15, 0] smbd/server.c:main(847)
smbd version 3.0.23a-1.fc5.1 started.
Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2006
smbd: symbol lookup error: smbd: undefined symbol: cupsLangDefault


Looking at the second line there it says its started?? Any idea's? How can i get this to startup? nmbd started up fine!?!

I solved the SMB start problem by using one of the methods listed in this thread .
i.e. yum update cups


But still I am having th problem of not Nautilis crashing when trying to browse the shared resource.


Thanks
