upgrade to natty problems - network down

[bill bixby]

ok - sorry to blow up this list but i'm still struggling here.  I have found a 
lot of similar problems (in different flavors of linux - etc) on forums but not 
many answers - and none that help me.Hopefully the /etc/samba/smb.conf file from 
my server will help.  The server is still fine but the other linux boxes can't 
see it or open the domain at all.


(I know username map ... = smbuser instead of smbusers - there is a reason but 
too long to explain)

please help

still desperate

First thing to do would be to ping the samba server ip address from your client. 

Make sure you have the same workgroup specified on all your ubuntu boxes (on 
smb.conf)
Based on that smb.conf you provided there are no shares specified.  Try to make 
a test share that everyone has all permissions on it. Make sure you have some 
users setup on the samba server. 

Hope it helped.  Come back with your results to check your progress. 
Cheers
