-Session request failed (131,129) with myname=HOBBES destname=CALVIN
-Not listening for calling name

-<para>
-If you get this when talking to a Samba box then it means that your
-global "hosts allow" or "hosts deny" settings are causing the Samba
-server to refuse the connection.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-Look carefully at your "hosts allow" and "hosts deny" lines in the
-global section of smb.conf.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-It can also be a problem with reverse DNS lookups not functioning
-correctly, leading to the remote host identity not being able to
-be confirmed, but that is less likely.

-<title>System Error 1240</title>
-
-<para>
-System error 1240 means that the client is refusing to talk
-to a non-encrypting server. Microsoft changed WinNT in service
-pack 3 to refuse to connect to servers that do not support
-SMB password encryption.
-</para>
-
-<para>There are two main solutions:
-<simplelist>
-<member>enable SMB password encryption in Samba. See the encryption part of
-the samba HOWTO Collection</member>
-
-<member>disable this behaviour in NT. See the section about
-Windows NT in the chapter "Portability" of the samba HOWTO collection
-</member>

-<title>smbclient ignores -N !</title>
-
-<para>
-<quote>When getting the list of shares available on a host using the command
-<command>smbclient -N -L</command>
-the program always prompts for the password if the server is a Samba server.
-It also ignores the "-N" argument when querying some (but not all) of our
-NT servers.
-</quote>
-</para>
-<para>
-No, it does not ignore -N, it is just that your server rejected the
-null password in the connection, so smbclient prompts for a password
-to try again.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-To get the behaviour that you probably want use <command>smbclient -L host -U%</command>
-</para>
-
-<para>
-This will set both the username and password to null, which is
-an anonymous login for SMB. Using -N would only set the password
-to null, and this is not accepted as an anonymous login for most
-SMB servers.

-<title>The data on the CD-Drive I've shared seems to be corrupted!</title>
-
-<para>
-Some OSes (notably Linux) default to auto detection of file type on
-cdroms and do cr/lf translation. This is a very bad idea when use with
-Samba. It causes all sorts of stuff ups.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-To overcome this problem use conv=binary when mounting the cdrom
-before exporting it with Samba.
