Hello.

Maybe a minor samba config problem but searches only show up some very 
old stuff and that doesn't appear to rectify the problem.

Once, again, Debian Stretch with samba installed.  All I need is to 
access a few files on Stretch from a win7 box, and that works.  What I 
can't get to work is the smbclient command to view the status of shares 
on Stretch.
smbclient -L localhost results in a password request, then entered, and 
the result is invariably this:

smbclient -L localhost
Enter tjm2's password:

Connection to localhost failed (Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL)

I've tried different users and root with the same result.  Tried 
adjusting the routing tables and using actual ip instead of localhost, 
also with no improvement.

I'm overlooking something, but it's not clear to what that is.  Like I 
said, the connection between boxes works just fine with no problems.

thanks,
tony
