remote
hosts is connection timeout. I can connect by other means, ftp, ssh, etc
from the other hosts, so at least I know that the physical server that
Samba
is on can be reached. I have tried connecting from windows servers and
from
Linux servers, but unless it is in my own local network of computers and
servers here, I can't connect. The other Linux and windows servers are
all
in different states (so of course, different networks).

Any help would be appreciated

Try telnetting to ports 135 137 138 139 and 445 on the samba server from the
remote server.
It would give an idea if its a firewall problem or something else.

------------
I can get to the ports from the local network, but not from a remote
network. I have some other servers in different Data centers around the
country. I turned on samba by "service smb start" and turned off the
firewalls. The same thing happened with them. I was able to access them
from the local networks, to that server, but not from remote networks.

Thanks
Steve
