Hi,
I'm running Vmware Server 1.01 RHEL4u4 host and XPsp2 guest with both bridged and host based networking. My end goal is to have Samba based share to the XP guest but to do this I need the netbios component working. Currently, ipconfig /all reports netbios over TCP/IP disabled even though I've been through the services.msc panel and attempted to start the Netbios helper. I think its related but dhcp within vmware fails as well even though a statically assigned address comes up fine.
There's no errors in the logs and I'm now at the point where I'm stumped
Manual start of netbios through the services.msc panel fails with
Errror 1068: The dependent service group failed to start.
Dependent groups are AFD (whatever that is) and NetBios over TCPIP which has sub-dependencies TCP/IP Protocol Driver and IPSec
If anyone has any ideas that would be great as this one has been beating me for days
Cheers
Paul
