OK...some progress. For extplorer, it was indeed not knowing the correct username/password combo. I am now able to get to it. However for webmin, using root, admin, or the admin-enabled user with a variety of passwords still leaves me with the Proxy error and unable to login. Recall, that I get the ...

OK, back to the Winclient. I think I have listed all the relevant configuration settings and documented all the mis-behavior From the Win7 Computer Properites page: computer name: hedwig full computer name: hedwig workgroup: OAKWOODROAD did a restart of the computer and ipconfig /renew DNS and DHCP ...

Well, I forgot to release/renew. Need to try that. In Computer properties, went to change computer name, changed the workgroup name, then clicked "More", where I'm asked to "Chnage primary DNS suffix when domain membership changes", to which I entered OAKWOODROAD.NET. After click...

Still no luck on either WinClient or LinClient. Focusing on only the WinClient for the moment, I changed the workgroup name to OAKWOODROAD and the set the name option so that it now appends OAKWOODROAD.NET to the computer name in the networking dialog. I can login to hda using a non-root user accoun...

Where would I set that within the HDA? Samba setting?

No I'm trying from within the LAN. It didn't surprise me when I was challenged getting into webmin, but it happens with extplorer as well. Happens on both Win7 and Linux LAN members.

Also trying to access hda shares (documents, music, etc.) leads to a password challenge.

Running the plug edition and having trouble with apps. I can now get to them using the short name from within my LAN. However, when I go to http://appname, I am challenged for a username and password. I have tried every combination I can think of including the root password that let's me login via a...

mattwire You were right. Removing the *.jnl files and restarting named solved the problem. Thanks for pointing out the solution.

I can now access http://<appname>, and http://<appname>.<domainname>

I'm a happy camper!

I'll do that tonight when I'm back at the box.
